huh? that one I can't explain, I'll have to do some research.

=> (def m (let [] {:x "a" :y 3}))
#'user/m
=> (class m)
clojure.lang.PersistentArrayMap

Since hash is cached and m doesn't change, more runs are just measuring the
time to lookup the cache. There may be a sligt overhead due to m being a
var.

To properly isolate this you have to use locals:
=> (let [m (hash-map :x "a" :y 3)]
     (println (class m))
     (time (dotimes [n 10000000] (hash m))))
clojure.lang.PersistentHashMap
"Elapsed time: 221.62 msecs"
nil
=> (let [m (hash-map :x "a" :y 3)]
     (println (class m))
     (time (dotimes [n 10000000] (hash m))))
clojure.lang.PersistentHashMap
"Elapsed time: 214.624 msecs"
nil
=> (let [m (hash-map :x "a" :y 3)]
     (println (class m))
     (time (dotimes [n 10000000] (hash m))))
clojure.lang.PersistentHashMap
"Elapsed time: 212.505 msecs"
nil
=> (let [m {:x "a" :y 3}]
     (println (class m))
     (time (dotimes [n 10000000] (hash m))))
clojure.lang.PersistentArrayMap
"Elapsed time: 232.872 msecs"
nil
=> (let [m {:x "a" :y 3}]
     (println (class m))
     (time (dotimes [n 10000000] (hash m))))
clojure.lang.PersistentArrayMap
"Elapsed time: 218.141 msecs"
nil
=> (let [m {:x "a" :y 3}]
     (println (class m))
     (time (dotimes [n 10000000] (hash m))))
clojure.lang.PersistentArrayMap
"Elapsed time: 220.813 msecs"
nil

No significant change -- hopefully since 1e7-1 times out od 1z7 we are
measuring the cost of looking up a cache.
