GCC 3 inlining problem (no warning, too) [my comment]

[Wirawan Purwanto]

Please see my own posting here for reference:

I think I have already figured out why g++ won't inline so many functions.
The default inline limit (the "N" in -finline-limit-N) is decreased from
10000 (2.95.3) to 600 !!! This may be the answer why. Why this is decreased
so drastically? It would be nice if g++ (or cc1plus) diagnostic tool
includes a dump reporting which functions have been inlined, which have not
(but declared as inline). Or at least report it in -Winline.

No wonder why my program is somewhat slower in g++ 3 compared to g++ 2.95...
