I would also restructure the Method/Constructor accessor logic differently. The check for ReflectUtil.isVMAnonymousClass() can be performed just once (in the newMethodAccessor/newConstructorAccessor methods) and based on this check, create accessor:

- for classic declaring class - as is / unchanged
- for anonymous declaring class - just create and return NativeMethodAccessorImpl without a parent

Then in NativeMethodAccessorImpl (and same for constructor), modify the inflation checking logic:

if (parent != null && ++numInvocations > ReflectionFactory.inflationThreshold()) {
             MethodAccessorImpl acc = (MethodAccessorImpl)
                 new MethodAccessorGenerator().
generateMethod(method.getDeclaringClass(),
                                    method.getName(),
method.getParameterTypes(),
method.getReturnType(),
method.getExceptionTypes(),
method.getModifiers());
             parent.setDelegate(acc);
         }
I don't like adding even more special cases to this check. IMHO a better way that we discussed and rejected, opting for a smaller change, is to create a NonInflatingMethodAccessor and just drop in one of those without a delegate for when creating the accessor for methods/ctors on anonymous classes.
Even better. I would name the new class NativeMethodAccessorImpl and the one doing inflation InflatingNativeMethodAccessorImpl which would extend NativeMethodAccessorImpl, override invoke() and call super.invoke()... This way, no native methods duplication is needed. invoke() is already an interface method with 2 implementations. Now it will have 3. Does this present any difference for dispatch optimization?

FWIW i think the magic number is 4, but I don't know where I got that. Anyhow, this might be slightly controversial, but for all code I care about (reflective invocation of methods/ctors on non-VM-anonymous classes) the check happens exactly once as is.

No, the magic number is 2 (by default),
you can look for TypeProfileWidth in the vm code.

I forgot that each generated method accessor is a separate class with a separate method. So the number of implementations is already much more than 2 today...
