A lot of the slowness in Clojure comes down to how slow it is to load the main namespaces that are needed, especially clojure.core (see this post <http://nicholaskariniemi.github.io/2014/02/25/clojure-bootstrapping.html> ).
You should also look into the Clojure fastload branch, which apparently helped out a few Android programmers according to the clojure-android google list.
