Interesting to say the least. Its amazing how much troubleshooting it takes here to deeply understand the issues faced and it appears to me that the levels of abstraction introduced by both Clojure and the JVM increased the complexity and difficulty of the task.

I have a feeling that a C/pthreads or Go program probably would have been much easier to troubleshoot (and likely faster as well).
