This is a good idea but I would be a little bit suspicious about using 
"noalloc". Even if it works in your tests, this options is very delicate to 
use with the Gc, and may segfault in some cases.

Beside, I think that the benefit of noalloc have to be traded off with the 
complexity of the function in terms of elementary instructions.
