For my part, I'm relatively happy with the jvm's performance. I agree
that the memory is usage is (in general) higher that I would like, but
the performance of the system as a whole has been good.
I don't know if this matters, but I have written large-ish systems on
top of the JVM that performed well. A couple in plain-old-Java and
another in a Scheme hosted on the JVM. Both used a lot of memory and we
just took that into consideration when provisioning the machines.
Finding a system with the best cpu-performance, memory use, libraries,
community, etc is challenging and I for one am happy with the tradeoffs
that Clojure has made. [1]

still irritating.
