Hi there,

I've been working on some patches to Compiler.java in my spare time to add 
profiling and to try to add some optimisations to the code. My ultimate goal is 
to identify where time is spent during our app's start-up time, so that we can 
improve it.


One thing that hinders my progress is the formatting of the source code in 
Compiler.java (I won't go into specifics, as I think it has been brought up 
plenty of times before). After changing code the file ends up being reformatted 
by the editors that I have used. Using an IDE is difficult since there are so 
many warnings generated. 


Trying to generate a patch that I can submit to JIRA issue seems like it would 
be more trouble than it is worth, which means I am less willing to contribute 
to Clojure. 


Would the Clojure team be willing to accept a patch to standardise the 
formatting? Or a series of patches changing the file in smaller increments?


After the 1.8 release would be a good time to apply such a patch. 


I've seen mentioned here before that one potential issue is that patches 
created off the current Compiler.java would no longer apply. If that is deemed 
to be a real problem, I would be happy to fix up those patches myself. 


Thanks,


Marc
