Clojure 1.3's performance improvements will significantly impact perf on some of the benchmarks. If you are trying these out, please try them on both 1.2 and 1.3.
Also: the benchmarks are totally a numbers game: throw idioms and readability out the window. Clojure 1.3 should be able to match Java performance if you basically write Java-in-Clojure. On Clojure 1.2 you will have to do stranger things to get there.
