The object code (i.e. ssa then machine) is instantiated **only** when its **used** with given types set. If you really do call f.genpkg.(x) method on 200 different types for f, each with 200 N typed vars x you will pollute symbol table **at compiling time** (40000 entries you will not see until you dump the table). But resulting object code will have at most as many variants as M and N have different base types / for-type-cases at most. It further can be size-optimized by factoring out type-sized operations reusing a given code chunk for more than one base/case. Hope this helps, -- Wojciech S.
