Unfortunately, it's applicable only to key setup,
and unrolling happens in actual encryption.

But the point still stands: irrespective of other optimizations,
unrolled and non-unrolled forms will still have different sizes
and speeds, and in some cases (like this one) you can't
pick one form which fits all.
