Are you sure? I'd expect that with

(def integers (iterate inc 1))

(reduce + (take 10000000 integers))

but not with what you wrote. If it does happen with exactly what you wrote
then clojure.core/reduce is holding onto the head, or you had a funny
substitute reduce in whatever namespace you evaluated those in.
