@items is never frozen during compilation

[query]

This means that sorted_articles and friends inefficiently loop through the site's items no matter when they're called. I have a blog that defines a couple of helpers on top of sorted_articles to build archives by month and tag, and compilation is painfully slow.

This is version 4.1.1 on Ruby 2.3.0.

This one’s a little tricky because the item views are never frozen explicitly—but I suppose they should mirror the frozen-ness of the backing entity. Fix coming up.

WIP fix is in #797.

This is now fixed by #796 in the release-4.1.x branch and will be part of the 4.1.2 release.

Can you verify that this fix works for you? The simplest way to use this branch is to update the nanoc line in your Gemfile to say the following:

gem 'nanoc', github: 'nanoc/nanoc', branch: 'release-4.1.x'

Yup, this works. Compile times went down from minutes to less than 15 seconds. Thanks!
