oh JVM startup time isn't that terrible, but this is cool.

  JVM startup time is terrible, compared to the alternatives.

  Yes, it is. When I compare red-green-refactor cycles between Ruby and Clojure, and I've got sub-second turnaround in one and 5+seconds in the other, it's painfully bad.

    Sounds like you need a slice of cake.

      Not sure about the -1. Cake is a clj build tool that would help alleviate the severity of JVM startup cost...
