just for more information:

"The Thumb code requires 70 % of space of the ARM code.
 The Thumb code uses 40 % more instructions than the ARM code.
 With 32-bit memory, the ARM code is 40 % faster than the Thumb code.
 With 16-bit memory, the Thumb code is 45 % faster than the ARM code.
 Thumb code uses 30 % less external memory power than ARM code."

So in my case, I won't touch Thumb code ;-)
