As I noted over on android-ndk, function inlining and strength-
reduction can turn "let's call an empty function 2 million times" into
"let's set an integer to 2 million... oh, we don't use the result, so
let's do nothing at all".  "Hundreds of times slower" is easily
achievable with specific constructs.
