clj-fast

Library for playing around with low level Clojure code for performance reasons given some assumptions. Inspired by Naked Performance (with Clojure) – Tommi Reiman.

Some of the code is based on implementations in metosin's projects. Credit in code.

Usage

See benchmarks.

Experimental implementations

See results.md for experiments' benchmark results.

Assoc

• fast-assoc by Metosin.
• Inlined assoc which expands the "rest" args. (not tested)

Assoc in

• Inlined assoc-in which expands the keys sequence.

Get

• fast-get by Metosin.

Merge

• fast-map-merge: Metosin's implementation. Uses kv-reduce to fast-assoc all of one map into another.
• inline-merge: inlines core's merge reduction over a sequence of maps with conj to a nested conj of all maps.
• inline-fast-map-merge: same but with Metosin's fast-map-merge.

Get in

• inline-get-in: given that all keys are written as explicit arguments and not a sequence, get-in can be expanded into a series of gets.
• inline-get-some-in: same as above, but maps can be invoked on the keys. nil checks every iteration.

Assoc in

• inline-assoc-in: same as inline-get-in but with assoc-in.

Assoc in

• inline-update-in: same as inline-assoc-in but with update-in.

select-keys

• fast-select-keys-inline: same case with get-in can be done with select-keys.
