Hello, can anyone give a hint on real-world Clojure application? I would 
like to compare applications written in different dynamic  JVM languages 
with respect to different JVM characteristics. Usually this kind of things 
are done by means of benchmarking, however, no benchmarking suite exists 
for scripting languages. Available ones are for Java and Scala. There is 
also a Programming Languages Shootout Project 
(http://benchmarksgame.alioth.debian.org/), but the applications there are 
relatively small and CPU-intensive. Ideally, I would like to have a 
real-world applications (but not interactive ones, since it's not trivial 
to make it deterministic and will require automatization of the user 
behavior) that consume some input and produce some output. In this way I 
can profile the underlying JVM and collect metrics of interest. I've tried 
to search on GitHub, but failed. If you read a research paper comparing 
different JVM languages, what kind of applications you expect to be 
compared? I'm looking exactly for those ones. One candidate can be Clojure 
itself, since it's written in Clojure (am I right?), but then the question 
is what does it mean to "run Clojure on the JVM"? I don't understand how to 
run it and how to use the javaagent and collect the metrics of the 
underlying JVM. 

Any ideas?
