Eh, it's Java bytecode and it's Apache 2. So you can patch Datomic and extend it without breaking the license.

Decompile it to Java - yes, decompile it to Clojure - highly doubtful.

There are projects in Clojure to decompile Clojure-derived Java bytecode to Clojure. It works pretty well overall since Clojure's compiler isn't too fancy.

I wonder if public benchmarks are now allowed with the binaries.
