I understand hosting on a VM has it's own (huge) advantages: GC,
libraries, proved practices and vast amount of research and community
effort already available; no doubt on that part.

It is just having a mature and well designed cross-platform natively
compiled language (other than C and C++) has it's own advantages (I do
not mean Clojure should go down that path; I was just asking). Some
high level languages come to mind like Haskell, OCaml, Gambit-C Scheme
(and for sure some others) but they lack in some areas and not fully
cross platform.

Clojure is a fantastic language (Although I have just scratched the
surface) and It would be "nice" to have it natively compiled.

Thanks
