What's the hit in terms of opcodes for calling a helper function? I
would have thought you spend 10s of opcodes with messing around with
stack frames and the like before you get to the helper.
I was wondering if there is a demand for more SIMD like TCG opcodes but
I suspect all the arches are subtly different enough to make it a pain
to abstract.
