Those are already small functions AFAIK (I was speaking about
symbol bloat, not code bloat). It does not help with compilation
issue though - each logging call creates a totally new template
instance which means allocating new object for DMD internal
representation and running semantic phase for it. And mature
applications can have thousands of logging calls. I have yet to
run tests to see actual impact but it concerns me from the pure
DMD internals point of view.
