HotSpot inlining needs to be considered too, and that depends on the 
global environment.  Not only is that difficult to benchmark, but it can 
dynamically change in the running application too.  The difference can 
be enormous for stream parsing, audio, graphics, etc.

You'd benchmark this to know whether or not to refactor your optimized 
classes so that there is never more than one usable declaration of a 
method that must be optimized.  It's not always easy, such as when 
optimizing older JRE abstract base classes where everything is 
synchronized and subclassed everywhere.
