Speaking of which, a hardware JVM would also mean clojure on the metal :)

  if the JVM would have been implemented in Clojure and all the other stuff, too. Already the Clojure compiler is not written Clojure, but Java. The JVM also for example has no TCP stack on its own, it interfaces the OS - which then is written in C/C++.

    An example of a Java Machine is JOP [1], it has a TCP/IP stack and is a microcoded architecture too. [1] https://www.jopdesign.com/ https://www.jopdesign.com/

      Right, the JavaOS from SUN would also count: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaOS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaOS http://www.eecg.toronto.edu/~stumm/teaching/ece1759/javaos/javaos.html http://www.eecg.toronto.edu/~stumm/teaching/ece1759/javaos/j...
