    1. defrecord in the bag for the MAGIC compiler. it expands to deftype, but deftype is in fact special cased in a bunch of ways to support defrecord. those special cases took some time to land.

    the difference in bytecode is really evident in this case. ClojureCLR (left) emits dynamic call sites whenever the generated type needs to construct itself, but MAGIC can emit a direct constructor. this is more efficient, but more importantly dynamic call sites wont work on ios!
