differences the problem must lie with compiler/linker.
Have you tried using smart linking? (-XX)

Doesn't the compiler attempt to inline small functions/methods
automatically as part of its optimisation (even if the inline
directive is not specified)?
No.

Might it be possible to keep a recerence counter for procedures/

There are plenty of things on our todo list already to keep us
busy :) We've already talked about automatic inlining in the past,
but nobody has spent time on it yet afaik.

What would be nice is to have a compiler switch which takes say an
8bit value to indicate how many bytes a function must contain in

wont exacerbate the executable file size

I do not think this should work. You can't pass the address of a temp
like this.

Borland's compiler does register variables better than FPC and can do

I thought I saw that FPC beat Kylix in several cases in the timings
that were posted.

Pretty much all of those old complex instructions (enter, loop,
