However, my endeavour is to boldly go where no inliner has gone before, and

(Sugg. b. Rich. G.), because inlining functions that are only called once is
always profitable (in number of instructions saved).
;)
Note that some optimizers (for example value-numbering) contain cut-offs
so that they are turned off for large functions as otherwise compile-time
issues appear as algorithms are non-linear in the size of the function.
As you correctly note, this is a tongue-in-cheek remark - anyway, we
(meaning, I) have first to find out why an executable, thus constructed,
gets execution times for a time step (the "unit-of-work") between 61 and
94 seconds, something that should be close to the same on every time step.
