Always look at the memory management story when you stumble upon something like this.
Seems like a cool project if you already know Clojure and hate the start up time, but also seems like it sidesteps one of the main benefits of Clojure which is Java interop obviously... Which Clojure has to do a fair number of handsprings to accomplish. Begs the question, why pick Clojure as the lisp to compile to C++? Why not Racket or Common Lisp etc?
Viewing the site in iOS Safari, I get several pages of what appears to be random binary gunk rendered as HTML. Something wrong with compression headers?

You could have provided a link to the memory management section or even mentioned it was ref counting. Otherwise your comment is ... it kills me to say this but pretty useless.

I kind of saw it as being intended for someone that loves Clojure but needs to run in a constrained environment that usually requires C or C++.
Does this have Clojure's persistent data structures? The docs say it has immutable data structures, which isn't exactly the same thing. (Edit: added the second sentence)
