The change is significant since it affects the rx hot path.
Paul observed and documented the effects at asm level, see
below:
"It turns out that it does make a difference, since gfar_process_frame
gets inlined, and so the increment code gets moved out of line (I have
marked the if statment with * and the increment code within "-----"):
So, the increment does actually get moved ~1k away."
