If nothing else, he's made it pretty much a NOP to switch between the C version and jeromq. Considering how painful it generally is for me to get java, clojure, and native C libraries to work nicely together, I think this is huge. > I hear that ABCL (a pure java Common Lisp implementation) supports CFFI, > which is the only Lisp dependency for cl-czmq.

I think ABCL is a *great* project, but it'd more than a little pathological for what I'm doing, which is basically OpenGL in front of clojure. (Along with a smalltalk-ish environment that I offered the CL community years ago...to varying degrees of enthusiasm). Then again...it's an interesting idea. ABCL<->clojure interop would move my second concern about performance to a layer where experts have presumably optimized. Back to the drawing board (thanks! Much better now than 6 months down the road when I'm married to code instead of concepts).
