to vsk:

I did some analysis on the slow down on bzip2: with preinstrumentation inliner we actually are more aggressive on the late simple inline. Here is the related call chain.
BZ2_compressBlock() -> sendMTFValues() --> bsW()
BZ2_compressBlock calls sendMTFValues() one time (1 call site), and
sendMTFValues() has 64 call sites to bsW().

In preinline, we inlines sendMTFValues() to BZ2_compressBlock().
In simple inline, we inlines all 64 calls to bsW() to BZ2_compressBlock().

Without preininline, we inline 2 calls to bsW in sendMTFValues() and then decided to defers the inline to the other calls bsW(). But somehow we do not inline sendMTFValues() to BZ2_compressBlock().

I'm yet to investigate why deferred decision changed in simple inliner. I think this is a rare case that we happen to hit.
