Which core.matrix implementation are you using? core.matrix is really just an API, and has a number of implementations. The default is not particularly fast, and uses vanilla nested Clojure vectors. However, you can also set up the Vectorz implementation which is typically fast enough for my needs. And there is also a clatrix implementation which uses a native library (I forget; BLAS? LAPAC?); That can be fast if you just have really big operations, but there is cost in translating Java data over to native data. For that reason, doing things that require a lot of iteration can sometimes get better performance using Vectorz.
