we're now using Scala's Presentation Compiler
James Strachan

so figured it'd be a good idea if Scalate switched to it; should make
subsequent compiles of templates much faster. Did a quick performance
test (running PerformanceTest) and the trivial 1 liner did make
Scalate 3-10X faster at compiling templates. Yay!
Here's the issue...

There could well be further optimisations if we tweak/use the
presentation compiler a little better.
Ideally long term it'd be great to get Scalate wired into the Scala
Presentation Compiler itself as another language like Scala/Java; so
regular SBT / Eclipse / IDEA builds can also build Scalate templates
in the same build phase & re-use the clever delta processing that
SBT/Eclipse do.
We should cut a new scalate release soon!

Yes, please do! I'd love to see the inline CoffeeScript comments fixed:

Yeah! Thats been fixed in master a while too; another reason to cut a release...
