Dynamically generating high performance functions in clojure
- by mikera
I'm trying to use Clojure to dynamically generate functions that can be applied to large volumes of data - i.e. a requirement is that the functions be compiled to bytecode in order to execute fast, but their specification is not known until run time.
e.g. suppose I specify functions with a simple DSL like:
(def my-spec [:add [:multiply 2 :param0] 3])
I would like to create a function compile-spec such that:
(compile-spec my-spec)
Would return a compiled function of one parameter x that returns 2x+3.
What is the best way to do this in Clojure?
