+    When a loop body is create, we get a Relay expression backtracing all
+    the way back to input node. This will result in lots of unnecessary
+    expression placed into loop body and compute multiple times. For example,
+    consider the following tensorflow code:
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+
+        i = tf.constant(0)
+        data = tf.compat.v1.placeholder(tf.float32, shape=(1024, 1024))
+        slice = tf.strided_slice(data, 0, 512)
+        def c(i): return tf.less(i, 10)
+        def b(i): return [tf.add(i, 1), tf.add(i, 1) + slice]
+        r = tf.while_loop(c, b, [i])
+
+    If we directly create recursive function, slice will be placed into 
function body.
 
 Review comment:
   Maybe we need to add a loop-invariant code motion (LICM) pass so that we 
don't need to handle this in different frameworks. It can benefit general Relay 
program as well, though it is not necessarily in this PR.
