No benchmarks, just a few small algorithm implementations (kmeans, random forest, ff neural net). Clojure was faster, although the difference was pretty trivial

I have been frustrated with Clojure lately because of startup time (I do a lot of CLI tools), and would love to use Luajit, but my coworkers hate when I write in languages other than Ruby or Clojure. For my own pet projects it is great.
- graue 13y agoWell that's pretty darn cool to hear that Clojure can achieve LuaJIT's level of speed. But I agree, I feel Clojure just isn't suited for CLI tools at all, unfortunately. I know there are solutions that keep a background JVM ready and reuse it but I've never managed to get that to work smoothly.
