My company (read: I) develop an web-based educational application (a language lab) implemented as a Java applet.
I have spendt the summer porting it to Clojure. I am very happy with the results. Except: The download (and therefore the download-time) has increased dramatically, as I now include the clojure.jar as part of the download. (Actually, I repackage the content together with my application.) This, I fear is going to hit alot of the pupils hard, when 20 pupils at a time attempt to access the applet for the first time over the mediocre (at best) web-connections at their schools. Yes, I do manipulate the java applet cache-params. But There will always be a need for full downloads - both for first- time-users, and when I update the applet (frequently). My question: Is there anyway to reduce the size of the jar - drastically? Can I somehow remove most of the class-files generated from core.clj etc, and still have everything working properly? Tips/hints/suggestions?
