Hello, everyone. I'm experience some performance issue when using clojure.
The scenario is as follows:

I have a huge list of xls files to process. I used the
org.clojars.boechat107/cloxls  to read the files which for each file
generates a list(approximately 65,000 elements). Now I need to concatenate
all of them. I used (mapcat read-worksheet files) to get the final list,
but it soon reports out of heap space. Then I tried to use mutable
structures:

  (doseq [f files]
    (swap! sheet concat (read-worksheet f)))

where sheet is defined as (def sheet (atom [])))

But the concat seems to slow down a lot when the list grows larger. I'm
wondering if in clojure there is some efficient idiom to handle such
situation such as efficient concatenation?

Thanks,
Bruce Li
