Replacing the "map" call with "pmap" on a 2 core machine improved my time by about 6% (the code was already keeping both cores pretty busy). On a 4 core machine it brought the time from 6.8 seconds down to 4.7. On the same 4 core machine, the Java version posted by the original poster runs in 1.3 seconds including JVM launch time. I tried use clojure.parallel's preduce as well, but on my 4 core machine it didn't affect the time. --Steve --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
