This macro can be used in place of the <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">inline</span></code>
keyword to instruct the compiler that a function should always
be inlined. Overuse of this macro can lead to significant bloat,
while good use can increase performance in certain cases, such
as computation-intensive code built through generative programming
techniques.
