+/*
+ This test file compares the generated code size of similar functions
+ between raw COM interface pointers (|AddRef|ing and |Release|ing by hand) and
+ |nsCOMPtr|s.
+
+ Function size results were determined by examining dissassembly of the
+ generated code. mXXX is the size of the generated code on the Macintosh. wXXX
+ is the size on Windows. For these tests, all reasonable optimizations were
+ enabled and exceptions were disabled (just as we build for release).
+
+ The tests in this file explore only the simplest functionality:
+ assigning a pointer to be reference counted into a [raw, nsCOMPtr] object;
+ ensuring that it is |AddRef|ed and |Release|d appropriately; calling through
+ the pointer to a function supplied by the underlying COM interface.
+
+ Windows:
+ raw_optimized
+ 31 bytes raw, nsCOMPtr*
+ 34 nsCOMPtr_optimized*
+ 38 nsCOMPtr_optimized
+ 42 nsCOMPtr
+ 46
+
+ Macintosh:
+ raw_optimized, nsCOMPtr_optimized
+ 112 bytes (1.0000) nsCOMPtr
+ 120 (1.0714) i.e., 7.14% bigger than
+ raw_optimized et al
+ raw
+ 140 (1.2500)
+
+ The overall difference in size between Windows and Macintosh is caused
+ by the the PowerPC RISC architecture where every instruction is 4 bytes.
+
+ On Macintosh, nsCOMPtr generates out-of-line destructors which are
+ not referenced, and which can be stripped by the linker.
