Description
A function like
currently receives a cljs$lang$applyTo property of the following form:
The forthcoming patch changes that to
The included benchmark seems to demonstrate a substantial reduction in {apply} overhead on V8 for a function with 10 positional arguments preceding the rest arg and a less substantial reduction for a function with 2 positional arguments, as one would expect. The other benchmark entries for {apply} remain in the same ballpark ({list} actually produces the same compilation output with or without the patch; {+} is changed, but only slightly).
