Ok, that's a relief. First of all, -Xmx1G isn't legal, at least for java 1.6; I had to specify -Xmx1024m. Second, once I did that, the memory use of the obvious parallel version, (reduce + (pmap ...)), remained within reason. Clojure is good, everything is happy, fuzzy bunnies and kittens frolic with abandon. So, all of this is a lot of hot air over nothing. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
