optimiser: A tool for making programs run faster and/or in less RAM. There are tools that can work on the *.class files produced by any compiler, such as Dash O, Optimize It! and Jopt. Ron Yorston has a peephole optimiser project called JOpt. You can run several optimisers on your class files in succession. Obfusctors are also a form of optimiser since they reduce the length of the names carried. There are also compilers that have extensive optimisation built in.
