Dear Julien,

I asked:

| typical use cases?

Can you please provide values for the size of the binary and the
execution time?

It's not really critical, but I'd like to understand the impact of
your changes.  You use case is pretty exotic, so it seems a valid
question to me to try to understand what the extended functionality
costs.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
