I'm sorry, I never heard of this. How would you compile Clojure to Haskell? On Sat, Nov 17, 2012 at 10:31 AM, Ahmed Shafeeq Bin Mohd Shariff < sepultura.tri...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi guys, > > I've been frustrated with Clojure's slow speed on the JVM. I've been > thinking of how it can be compile

why not just use haskell instead? i doubt you can just convert the code Am 17.11.2012 19:31, schrieb Ahmed Shafeeq Bin Mohd Shariff: > Hi guys, > > I've been frustrated with Clojure's slow speed on the JVM. I've been > thinking of how it can be compiled to native and I feel that compiling > C

Hey, By slow speed, do you mean startup/compilation time or execution time of running programs? I have noticed that the execution time is actually pretty good and can be close to Java execution time (if you think Java execution time is good). The startup/compilation time really bugs me. I obser

There have been several projects where people have begun developing Clojure to C or C++ translations, but I don't know how fleshed out those are. ClojureC - https://github.com/schani/clojurec Ferret - http://nakkaya.com/2011/06/29/ferret-an-experimental-clojure-compiler/ These do not have the a

Hi guys, I've been frustrated with Clojure's slow speed on the JVM. I've been thinking of how it can be compiled to native and I feel that compiling Clojure to Haskell and then using ghc to convert this to native would be a good idea since Haskell has a large set of good libraries. What do you
