I suspect that on recursion
If you use plain function-calling recursion, yes. If you use (loop ... recur...) then (IIRC) locals are not boxed (as well as saving stack).
Also bear in mind that JIT will come into play here; after a few tens of thousands of arithmetic ops, the common path will be nearly free. Don't call something slow without measuring it.
