This is a short, practical guide that will teach you everything you need to know to start writing high performance Clojure code. This book is ideal for intermediate Clojure developers who are looking to get a good grip on how to achieve optimum performance. You should already have some experience with Clojure and it would help if you already know a little bit of Java. Knowledge of performance analysis and engineering is not required. For hands-on practice, you should have access to Clojure REPL with Leiningen.

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Shantanu Kumar is a software developer living in Bangalore, India, with his
wife. He started learning programing in 1991, using BASIC on MS DOS when
he was at school. There, he developed a keen interest in the x86 hardware and
assembly language, and he dabbled in it for a good while. Later, he programmed
professionally in various business domains and technologies while working with
the Indian Air Force and several IT companies.
In recent years, Shantanu has worked on high performance and distributed systems.
Having used Java for a long time, he discovered Clojure in early 2009 and has been
a fan ever since. Clojure's pragmatism and fi ne-grained orthogonality continues to
amaze him, and he believes he is a better developer because of this.
When not busy with programming or reading up on technical subjects, he enjoys
reading non-fi ction, riding his bike, and occasionally just lazing in his free time.
Shantanu is an active participant in the Bangalore Clojure users group and
develops several open source Clojure projects on GitHub.
