Clojure is fun but starting a Clojure program that just prints hello world takes over 1 second, even worse on a raspberry pi. I suppose command line tools are not its main purpose.

- mateuszf 12y agoIt's possible to use ClojureScript with node.js to get fast startup times, but one doesn't get jvm benefits that way.
- venantius 12y agoYou can make command line tools in Clojure, but in general I'd agree that you'd be better served by a language that can either compile and run faster [Golang] or is interpreted [Python, Ruby, etc.]. There's no real getting away from the JVM start-up cost, sadly.
