Hi Sean, Absolutely, the growing stack of context class loaders is a quirk of the nREPL client.
* something fairly unexpected is that with a CIDER/nREPL setup, each evaluation adds an extra classloader* And later I write: In the default REPL, one instance of DynamicClassLoader stays associated with the REPL throughout the session. In a nREPL client, instances of DynamicClassLoader keep piling up. If you think there is a lack of clarity, I'll be happy to amend the text to make it less likely for the reader to miss that. Thank you very much for your input.
