<h1>AspectJ 5 v1.5.1 Readme</h1>
<p>
This release is primarily a bug fix and performance / memory usage release.
Over 70 fixes and enhancements have been incorporated since 1.5.0, you can see
the list through

<p>
AspectJ 1.5.1 has significantly lower memory usage than AspectJ 1.5.0,
especially when building inside of AJDT. The improvements are also noticeable
when batch building with Ant, or when load-time weaving. Batch building a
project with over 1000 source files with both AspectJ 1.5.1 and AspectJ 1.5.0
shows a 16% reduction in peak memory usage, and an 8% reduction in heap consumed
by temporary objects. The AspectJ 1.5.1 compiler integrated into AJDT gives memory
savings of at least 50%. The greater savings in the AJDT environment are due to
improvements in areas such as structure model generation that are not exercised
