Clojure 1.7.0-alpha1 has the following changes from 1.6.0:

1) Improved keyword and symbol construction performance

Symbols no longer intern namespace or name strings (interning is relatively
slow). Keyword cache lookups benefit from this and also from other minor
changes in cache lookup.

2) Transducers support as outlined in Rich's blog post:

-------------------------------------------------------

In addition to these changes there are several other large changes (feature
expressions, direct calls, etc) being explored and many tickets in some
stage of development or completion to consider. We have not yet decided on
the timeframe and contents for a 1.7.0 release. We felt it was important to
release an alpha1 now to give a hard target for trying transducers.
