I hope Rhino will see significant performance improvements over the
next few months. I'll be starting to work on a "hidden classes" branch
inspired by John Rose's classy branch shortly. This will allow as to
implement proper callsites at last, and there's a GSoC project I'm
mentoring for using invokedynamic on top of this.

The reason I'll probably not start from John's branch directly is it
is based on invokedynamic from the ground up, and we need to support
Java 6 and earlier for the foreseeable future.

As for type inference, specialization etc.: that is certainly
interesting, but right now property access seems to be the most
significant bottleneck, so it seems like a good idea to target that
first.
