Re: [squirrelfish] Ever considered inlining 'hot' functions?

In the general case this would require being able to convert from inlined code to a 'correct' call stack at some arbitrary point

argh, I had hoped that such things would be only necessary when we have a debugger attached. This mean besides what maciej had said, we will need to remember that this range of instructions belongs to a inlined call and be able to generate the virtual call record. Can one write to arguments, callee and such? I wonder (and will try to measure based on sunspider and other test content) how many functions occur like function f(x) { return x +2; } or even fully constant. Is there any classification of the complexity of functions at parse time?
