Looking for Clojure

[Consistent1]

I was wondering... would it make sense to leverage the parallel capabilities of the board using Clojure?

If a JVM could be used it will enable the use of many Java libraries, plus Scala, Clojure, and a bunch of other languages.
Clojure is my own preference, but it seems to me that in a sense the JVM may offer us 3 for the price of one.

The Scala community had some good experience with 'domain specific' optimization of code. They wrote code specifically for physics simulations using Scala, which ended up as fast as code written in C and sometimes even faster.

Ok, ok... I know most people think C is the upper limit for speed , so assuming I'm willing to sacrifice some performance, will I be able to use a JVM language?

It is my opinion that this chip is closer related to a GPU than a CPU in its operation. It does not have vector graphics operations but the code size and the general design reminds me of the architecture of many GPUs and maybe adapting shader compiler methodology would be more optimistic than CPU methodology.

Are there any updates on this? Would love to be able to use clojure on the Parallela platform. It's so brilliantly desgined for doing parallel computing; I think the combo would be killer if it can be made to work.
