C++ versus V8 versus luajit versus C benchmark - (hash) tables

Warning

This benchmark has been misleading for a while. It was originally made to demonstrate how JIT compilers can do all sorts of crazy stuff to your code - especially LuaJIT - and was meant to be a starting point of discussion about what exactly LuaJIT does and how.

As a result, its not indicative of what its performance may be on more realistic data. Differences can be expected because

  1. the text will not consist of hard-coded constants

a.k.a. what to do when your ISP starts blocking sites :(

Set the SOCKS proxy to local SSH tunnel

This is a draft of the current production state of my clojurescript enlive port. From the other end, I'm factoring enlive, so that its engine can work on any tree. That should enable a lot of shared code between a clj and a cljs version.
;; The macros
;; most macros here alias names from select.cljs
;; they will get used in regular calls
(ns lib.select
(:require
[clojure.string :as str]))
;; selector syntax
(defn intersection [preds]

This file is not part of the cljs port as of yet, but a tidbit from my enlive cleanup effort It shows how to implement CSS3 operations in terms of zippers, in that form it should be trivial to adapt to the DOM it's basically the predicates library from enlive, but lifted to a zipper level, so that it can work generically
(ns workbench.enlive.predicate
(:require
[clojure.zip :as z]
[workbench.enlive.engine
:refer [compile-step]]
[workbench.enlive.select
:refer [zip-select]]))

Partial functions in C This program illustrates a hack to create partial functions in C. The way it works is that it generates a template function (partial_template_function) with known pointers, that is later copied to a region of memory obtained with mmap(), patched up with the address and data to be passed to the real function, and then made …
