shadow-cljs: Advanced build bloated since 6.0.3

[DerGuteMoritz]

A shadow-cljs-based CLJS build grew from 512K to 630K between versions 6.0.2 and 6.0.3 (and persists in 6.0.4) with advanced optimizations. I was able to further narrow down the cause to com.taoensso/encore by switching to 6.0.2 and overriding its encore version. Turns out that encore version 3.34.0 is the last one that produces a 512K build. Versions 0.35.0 through 0.37.x are broken (due to #364) and version 0.38.0 and later then produce the bloated 630K build.

I just tried with the following overrides to the respective latest versions:

{com.taoensso/encore {:mvn/version "3.45.0"}
 com.taoensso/truss {:mvn/version "1.8.0"}}

Still produces the same result.

@DerGuteMoritz Hi Moritz, thanks for reporting this - and for the clear & detailed report - was very helpful!

Would you please try [com.taoensso/encore "3.46.0-alpha1"] and let me know if that's also producing the bloated build?

[DerGuteMoritz]

Hi Peter, thanks for the swift reply 👍 Unfortunately, [com.taoensso/encore "3.46.0-alpha1"] doesn't make a difference (I double-checked that it's indeed being used).

[ptaoussanis]

👍 Is [com.taoensso/encore "3.46.0-alpha2"] any better?

If that's still no good, I'll try create a reproducible example on my side.

Thanks!

[DerGuteMoritz]

Ha, that did the trick, down to 513K now 🎉 Nice work!

Just pushed [com.taoensso/encore "3.46.0"] to Clojars 👍
Thanks so much for reporting this, apologies for the trouble!
