Hi all, My environment is, Kubuntu 11.10, Clojure v1.3 and sun-java6-jdk. I issued the following forms in REPL:
user=> (def n 100000000) #'user/n user=> (time (loop [cnt 100000000 sum 0] (if (zero? cnt) sum (recur (dec cnt) (+ sum cnt))))) "Elapsed time: 605.564858 msecs" 5000000050000000 user=> (time (loop [cnt n sum 0] (if (zero? cnt) sum (recur (dec cnt) (+ sum cnt))))) "Elapsed time: 3707.245668 msecs" 5000000050000000 Why did the second loop so slow?!
