This is only a part of the performance problem but it is actually
fairly bad. We do not realize it that much because our development
machines have huge CPU caches. Many CPUs in the wild do not have 8Mb
of fast cache and sometime we pay a high price for the size of WebKit.

I prefer compile flag over runtime flag for experimental features.
