inline will inflate code size. Look at the MSP430F1611 mote
its Code/Data Rate = FLASH/RAM Rate = 48KB / 10KB = 4.8
The FALSH/RAM Rate of tinyos applications:
Blink 2606B/40B = 65.15
SurgeTelos 17140B/670B = 25.58
SimpleCmdTelos 11516B/359 = 32.08
TOSBase 11066B/1848B = 5.99
...
The FLASH/RAM Rates of most applications are much higher than real motes.
The aggressive inline optimization may not good at using of resources in
balance.
Or MCU makers may need to design a new one.

Subject: Re: [Tinyos-help] Can we specify an interface function as inline?
Hi Shane,
nesC aggressively inlines over the whole program, and all functions
are implicitly marked as inline. Only the biggest function remain as
functions. In fact, it's actually very difficult to tell nesC *not*
to inline a function in those rare cases that you may think you don't
want inlining.

Aside from defining the external interfaces of a component, nesC
*interfaces* provide a nice way to logically group related functions
within a module even when it would suffice to implement a local function.
However, some such functions might be very small, e.g., just act on a few
variables and return, and might normally be defined as *inline*. Is there
a way to define an interface function as inline? Or perhaps ncc/gcc is
smart enough to optimize on it's own?
