defprotocol emitted one variadic (fn [this & rest] (protocol-dispatch P m this
(list->cseq rest))) per method, so every protocol call — even a no-extra-arg one
like (area s) — consed a rest list, wrapped it in a cseq, var-deref'd
protocol-dispatch, and jolt-invoke'd it (consing again). On mono-dispatch that was
2.07GB of allocation, ~65% of the benchmark.
Emit one fixed-arity clause per declared arglist instead. The 1/2/3-param arities
call positional protocol-dispatch{1,2,3}, which resolve the impl (by record tag,
reify method, or host-tag extension — factored into protocol-resolve) and apply it
directly; no rest-list, no seq round-trip. The dispatchN entry points are in the
native-op table so the shim calls bind straight to the records.ss procedures
rather than var-deref. 4+ params fall back to the variadic protocol-dispatch.
mono-dispatch 1.5s/2.07GB -> 0.69s/280MB; dispatch 26x -> 12.2x, mono-dispatch
111x -> 51x vs JVM. 5 new corpus rows pin multi-arity methods, host-type args,
and protocol-method-as-value against JVM Clojure.

Chez test harness
The correctness gate for jolt. Pure Chez (+ Clojure for the JVM oracle).
Correctness is judged against the JVM-sourced conformance spec; the spec itself
lives in test/conformance/ (see its SPEC.md). Run the whole gate with make test from the repo root.
The spec corpus
corpus.edn is the contract: ~2920 rows {:suite :label :expected :actual}, with
:expected sourced from reference JVM Clojure by test/conformance/regen-corpus.clj.
It is frozen (the canonical source) — add or change cases here, then re-source the
answers with regen-corpus.clj and re-certify with test/conformance/certify.clj.
The gate runners (host/chez/)
-
run-corpus.ss— runs every corpus case through the spine (read → analyze → IR → emit → eval, all on Chez), comparing each result by value-equality against the JVM:expected. Aknown-failallowlist covers cases jolt can't match because Chez has no JVM host (Java classes, arrays,BigDecimal, opaque host-object printers, …); the gate fails only on a NEW divergence or if the pass count drops below the floor.chez --script host/chez/run-corpus.ss JOLT_CORPUS_LIMIT=200 … # every-Nth stride, fast iteration JOLT_CHEZ_ZJ_FLOOR=N … # override the floor (default 2678) -
run-unit.ss— host-specific unit cases (test/chez/unit.edn) that aren't in the JVM-portable corpus: dot-forms, java statics, io, reader, walk, vars/namespaces, refs. Each:expris evaluated in-process and its printed value compared to a baked:expected(:throwsasserts a raise). -
selfcheck.sh— self-host fixpoint:bootstrap.ssrebuild byte-equals the checked-in seed (host/chez/seed/). -
smoke.sh— realbin/joltc -eCLI smoke.
Other Chez tests
values-test.ss— the value model (nil/truthiness/collections).make values.bench-chez.ss— compute bench through the pipeline (opt-in; not in the gate).
All runners assume chez on PATH.
