There's another good opportunity for inlining in REALbasic, and that's color accessors. Most pixel-munging code got significantly slower in RB2005, because things like pixel.red are now a function call. These could be inlined directly by the compiler with no change of behavior, since color is not a class and its accessors are not virtual. But have a little patience and faith -- I'm sure the RS engineers have been very busy getting us all Macintel support, plus the other good stuff in the latest release. With that behind them, I'm sure we'll see more compiler goodness coming soon enough.
