You could consider using transients. This will help prevent creating a lot
of ephemeral objects. The following untested:
(let [v (transient [])]
(doseq [n (.spit line ",")]
(conj! v (Double/parseDouble n)))
(persistent! n))
But just using Java arrays will certainly make your code more memory
efficient when you're dealing with such a large number of values. You also
might want to pick a different strategy for parsing the string instead of
splitting the string immediately into 50000000 parts.
