Over-indentation eats up precious space.  Try this:

     switch (expression) {
     case 'a':             /* lots of space here for a comment */
	statement
	...
	break;
     case 'b':
	statement
	...
	break;
     } /* switch */

Having each 'case' keyword aligned with the initial 'switch' keyword is
similar to having 'else' aligned with 'if'.  We create a comb, and pack
the C code in the gaps.
