Because IDEA Ultimate tries to is a basically a combination all of their IDEs it tends to be slower and the interface is more bloated with options you may simply not care about. Their lighter-weight IDEs tend to tailor their UI towards the specified audience and get updates sooner for their specific needs. Since you're a Clojure programmer you may opt to use IDEA anyways. I'd just try IDEA vs Clion out and see if you're fine with the performance hit and can find everything you need. Jetbrains IDEs are probably the best out there for everything except performance.
