I just came across the issue of getting the StackOverflowError in the
function reading long file and recursively building a list of data.
After I replaced function name with recur the problem went away.
Hence a couple of questions. It's the programmer's responsibility to

As I understand it, Clojure compiles into bytecode that effectively
turns the recurs into an iterative process. Scala does something
similar but automatically (i.e. you don't have to use a specific
keyword). The advantage to
