Tuples have been disabled after further analysis of performance impacts. This alpha has initial support for direct linking which you can enable with -Dclojure.compiler.direct-linking=true Direct linking allows functions compiled with direct linking on to make direct static method calls to most other functions, instead of going through the var and the Fn object. This can enable further optimization by the jit, at a cost in dynamism. In particular, directly-linked calls will not see redefinitions. In alpha3, clojure.core is compiled with direct linking by default and therefore other namespaces cannot redefine core fns and have those redefinitions seen by core code. Functions declared as dynamic will never be linked to directly. As with all alphas, this represents ongoing work-in-progress that is subject to change. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
