To give a more complete picture, this version (defn blank? [s] (every? #(Character/isWhitespace ^char %) s)) is only six times slower than the expanded version, and keeping an eye on reflection warnings is not such a drag. So, if it could be demonstrated that in general the properly type-hinted, but otherwise idiomatic Clojure is not more than 10 times slower than idiomatic Java, I'd consider that at least a good starting point. -Marko -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
