Sub-Tasks

• Optimization done by groovy compiler by caching number constants does not cover closure classes: Closed
• TSR-like behaviour, whereas a persistent server runs the scripts rather than starting a new process everytime. Would eliminate startup time issues, and allow groovy to be effectively used for batch processes on *nixes.: Closed
• improved int math: Closed
• allow direct method calls on "this" to private methods if the method call target is clearly selectable at compile time: Closed
• extend int math improvement to char, byte, short and mixes of those including int: Closed
• enable more direct super constructor calls: Closed
