You can test and see, but that bit was added as part of devirtualizing
height(). Originally when I virtualized height() on InlineBoxes it
caused about a 1% perf regression, so I tried to devirtualize as much
as I could in order to fix the problem. If you make isSVG() virtual
again, then you will cause height() to make a virtual function call
every time again, and will probably re-introduce at least part of the
perf regression.
It's not clear to me why the bit being there is relevant to Ruby?
