Well, all the code-size bars are above the baseline :) Let's see how it 
fares when they disappear or go below it.

Overall the performance is great, in my experience, due to low-ceremony 
architecture of the whole app. Clojure is great at reducing incidental 
complexity and this is relevant to more than just code aesthetics. Most of 
the time performance is not about computing power, anyway; that shouldn't 
say that computing performance is irrelevant. A great language ("the right 
thing") is strong at all fronts.
