Curious - why is running on JVM bad?

  Very slow startup for one.

    Yeah, somewhat agree. The Clojure community has put so much effort into working with GraalVM. * https://convexhuman.com/graalvm-clojure.html https://convexhuman.com/graalvm-clojure.html * https://nitor.com/en/articles/fast-cold-starts-for-clojure-in-aws-lambda-using-graalvm-native-image https://nitor.com/en/articles/fast-cold-starts-for-clojure-i... * https://www.innoq.com/en/blog/native-clojure-and-graalvm/ https://www.innoq.com/en/blog/native-clojure-and-graalvm/ Since development in the REPL is so common (watch any Clojure live coding session), JVM startup time isn't much of an issue in practice.

      This solves the startup-time of (static) applications, but not the startup time of for example executables, which include the development environment.
