I create many small methods in java without worrying about the
performance since it's usually the target of inline optimization. For
example,

public class Foo {
  public static long inc(long l) {
    return ++l;
  }

  public static long f1() {
    long l = 0;
    for (int i=0; i < 1000000000; i++) {
      l++;
    }
    return l;
  }

  public static long f2() {
    long l = 0;
    for (int i=0; i < 1000000000; i++) {
      l = inc(l);
    }
    return l;
  }
}

(time (Foo/f1))
(time (Foo/f1))
(time (Foo/f1))
(time (Foo/f2))
(time (Foo/f2))
(time (Foo/f2))

"Elapsed time: 23.309532 msecs"
"Elapsed time: 23.333039 msecs"
"Elapsed time: 21.714753 msecs"
"Elapsed time: 22.943366 msecs"
"Elapsed time: 21.612783 msecs"
"Elapsed time: 21.71376 msecs"


But clojure funtions seem to be never get inlined.

(def obj (Object.))

(defn getObj [] obj)

(defn f1 [] obj)
(defn f2 [] (getObj))

(time (dotimes [n 100000000] (f1)))
(time (dotimes [n 100000000] (f1)))
(time (dotimes [n 100000000] (f1)))
(time (dotimes [n 100000000] (f2)))
(time (dotimes [n 100000000] (f2)))
(time (dotimes [n 100000000] (f2)))

"Elapsed time: 67.758744 msecs"
"Elapsed time: 68.555306 msecs"
"Elapsed time: 68.725147 msecs"
"Elapsed time: 104.810459 msecs"
"Elapsed time: 103.273618 msecs"
"Elapsed time: 103.374595 msecs"
