ASM:

I haven't done anything with ASM before. Any advice would be greatly
appreciated.

What I have in mind is using the org.ow2.asm, not the internal clojure.asm.

I am imagining I can take a function's class and add 'implements IObj', a
'meta' field, and the necessary methods, and pass through everything else
unchanged.

I then ought to be reasonably insensitive to changes in how functions are
implemented, but not completely. I would definitely be depending on IObj,
which is not part of the public Clojure API.

So there's no guarantee anything implemented this way would continue to
work in a new release.
That might be a reasonable risk to tradeoff with higher performance,
however.

There's also a chicken and egg thing here: The Clojure API shouldn't commit
to anything without a good reason. But you can't demonstrate that there's a
good reason without realistic code that shows what's possible with that
commitment.
