Having done a lot of Erlang I am toying with Clojure at the moment. So far it is looking like a tool I will pull out for "big data" tasks, but I am having a real hard time resisting the urge to drop back into Erlang for big concurrency tasks. Right now my take on the two languages is that Clojure's sweet spot is as a more elegant way to take advantage of Java's SMP advantages but Erlang still wins for systems distributed across a large number of nodes (in this case it is OTP providing the win and not anything specific in Erlang that Clojure lacks, but this framework is still the best and most battle-tested thing out there for many-node systems...)
