Yes, insofar as I don't want performance impact to discourage people
from peppering their code with (disabled) log messages.  Richard
covers the case pretty well.

I don't see the leveraging of macro evalutaion to be "magic"; I view
it as a great advantage of clojure to not be limited to only compile-
time and run-time (given the recent AOTC-compatibility demands, not
everyone agrees).

Take a look at the java code that commons-logging needs to pick the
right implementation at runtime; it's way more complex and magical
than what c.c.logging does.
