The JVM is an advanced, mature JIT compiler. PyPy's generated JIT compilers 
are not as mature. As a result, the JVM does many of the things in the 
article and more. From what I see, the benefits of Clojure targetting PyPy 
would be exploring the performance advantages of very experimental work. 
Keep in mind, you'd be losing one key advantage of the JVM, which is the 
rich base of libraries written in java. I believe a main motivation to 
target different platforms would be because you want to leverage resources 
available only while on those platforms.
