If the person I replied do doesn't like the JVM why are they writing Clojure in the first place?

I've programmed lots of clojure. But in the end, I am too annoyed by the jvm ecosystem, the good that is clojure doesn't weight up the java crap, so while I love the language, I cannot stand the environment.
I'm interested to hear about your experience. What do you find annoying about the JVM? That notwithstanding, I wasn't asking about yours, I was replying to jeletonskelly's, which seems to be different to yours.
Would trying the CLR version be an option? Or is this really a cry for a better VM? Or is this really really a cry for an LLVM implementation?
