Performance at doing what? why? what are your requirements and what is important to you?
Your question is simple but can generate extensive debate. Don't expect a yes/no answer. See this extensive discussion and examples: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/clojure/byHO-9t6X4U/discussion it's funny how the phrase "java-like performance" is now used as a moniker for "fast". when Java came out the phrase was "c-like performance". when C came out, probably "assembler-like" ......its even faster if you build it in hardware too... just maybe not flexible in the way you would like.
