Yet another way you can get a repl into an existing process running on the
JVM:

Disclaimer:
It's a hack
It uses JDI to connect to the process (requires remote debugging on the
target, but no other modifications)
Won't work well for some
Hi!
I have only built on OSX so far which is why I haven't noticed this
problem. Apparently the com.sun.jdi classes are packaged differently than on
other platforms (there is no tools.jar on OSX).
The best solution I could come up with involved using a new feature from
lein 1.6.0-SNAPSHOT
On Java HotSpot:
-XX:+UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions -XX:+PrintAssembly
You'll need quite a few iterations, and be wary of code with no observable
effect (becomes subject to dead code elimination).
As far as I could tell cast or no cast made no difference at all (in this
particular case).
