This problem came up on the mailing list recently: http://groups.google.com/group/clojure/browse_thread/thread/5e0c078d0ad8b8bc#
You might want to compare your code to what was done here, but at a glance the implementations are similar. You provide relative speed comparisons (Such and such is % better...). Would you be able to share absolute times as well? I'm just curious at this point.
