A system freeze is probably due to thrashing by your operating system as
a process (in this case Python) uses more and more memory, causing
massive swapping.  Clojure's heap, being a JVM-based language, is based
on JVM settings, so it may be maxing out at just a couple of GB.
Whereas Python will happily max out your swap if your program demands
the memory.
