No, please no more inilining hacks. :) If someone wants to run everything at light speed - just code in C, but leave smalltalk honoring the message passing. And besides, these tricks won't make any difference when having good inlining JIT. In bytecode, they just add a complexity to compiler and headache to developers.
+64 to banning bytecode compiler hacks and instead concentrate on producing an inlining JIT. -Martin
