AOT in my experience is a little dicey and complicated.

Adding in compiled classes means also adding a dependency on whatever clojure version was used to compile those classes. The effects of this lead to often confounding errors. As an extra caveat, AOT currently does not make it easy to separate that project's class files from every other deps generated class files, so any project artifact will have extra classfiles in it. My company has grappled with separating these about five different ways in order to not distribute source, and there is a ticket to address it, but it looks like it'll persist. > 2) Why there is no project.clj in the org.clojure jar file? > Clojure itself isn't built with leiningen, hence no project.clj. > 3) When the clojure 'compile' function comes into play in your typical > clojure project deployments?
