>From the Java documentation:

"*Note: It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Unless a newinstance 
is required, the static factory 
valueOf(boolean) is generally a better choice. It is likely to yield 
significantly better space and time performance.*"

Emphasis not mine.

IIRC, it was deemed that people doing such stuff basically write buggy 
programs and it is not Clojure's task to fix this (paying a speed penalty in 
if).

Does the serialisation thing shed some new light on this issue?
