I'd guess that this would be a pretty big map to run to over 64k though - though I think Clojure has a single initialiser method that initialises all vars in the namespace, so it is tha total that is important. It certainly seems as if it is the whole namespace that is being compiled.

Well, of course everything is handled via reflection, which has a cost. The question is, can you afford the cost. In general, I think most of the AWS apis really aren't concerned with performance, e.g. EC2, and you're not making (many) repeated calls. If you look at something like DynamoDB
