Ah forgot that the core.async folks mentioned that if you want performance
its best to use real threads.

(time
 (let [c (chan 100)]
   (thread
    (dotimes [i 100000]
      (>!! c i))
    (close! c))
   (prn (<!! (thread (loop [i nil]
                       (if-let [x (<!! c)]
                         (recur x)
                         i)))))))


finishes in about 100ms which seems reasonable, just can't have too many of
those threads open.
