(dorun (map f xs ys zs)) creates and discards a cons for each iteration, no argument there. But its first element is very cheap: just the result of f, which you had to compute anyway.
(doseq [[x y z] (map vector xs ys zs)] (f x y z)) similarly creates a cons for each iteration. But its value, rather than being the result of f, is a vector constructed simply for bookkeeping purposes. Then before you can call f you must tear apart that vector to get at the pieces. If performance (either amount of garbage or number of operations) were the only factor, I can't see any way that this could be better than the dorun/map approach.
