Hi 1) yes this can be an issue, but usually in a JVM context you'd rather add threads to one JVM instead of running concurrent JVMs. 2) In the current iteration of indigenous there is a defined path for a given JNI resource so it'll create only one file in /tmp and reuse it on the following runs. 3) If you care about startup performance, clojure on the JVM is already not really light :)
About security and execution of binaries from /tmp, I thought linking dynamic libs and executing files from /tmp were considered differently but I'm not familiar with the way Windows deals with it.
