In my opinion, that regression is a reason to really improve the
inlining heuristics, not a reason to add yet another switch.

It is obvious that for C, we should increase the limits. We should increase them until such time as half of the people are complaining they are too high, and half are complaining that they are too small. At that point, we really need to qualitatively improve if people are still complaining. I had them up at 10000 or some such number, then it was dropped way down, 300 or so... Time to bounce it back up.
