I'm using clojure for various computational physics tasks: 1. I'm writing a dsl for substructure searching. 2. I'm doing classical molecular dynamics / structure optimization. Substructures can be included, for coarse grain md. 3. All the parameter fitting codes suck, so I wrote one that works for atoms and/or coarse grain points. 4. Soon, I will extend my substructure searching into a full-fledged structure database. I haven't ran into any performance problems yet. If I do, there are some places where I can replace dumb algorithms with better algorithms. I will gladly trade the minor low-level inefficiencies of clojure, for the ability to easily try out high-level, possibly domain and/or data specific optimizations.
