|Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but --disable-inline tells the compiler

This would also mean that inline-functions would result a much bigger
binary, because a lot of code would be duped in the process... everytime a
function gets called it is inserted into the calling function? I can see the
speed advantage (I think), but the earlier mentioned point is also true,
right? Or am I totally missing the point ?
