A few more noteworthy ones:
Variable name reuse:
var x = .....; print(x); var y = ......; print(y)
becomes
var x = .....; print(x); x = ......; print(x)
More aggressive inlining with variables and functions.
A lot more small optimizations that saves a char here and there.
Closure Compiler would also put more effort into your JSNI code for obvious
reasons.
