I'm all for such a hint in any case, even if that limit is quite low on
many archs. It's useful also on m68k, where the "efficiency limit" is also
32K. One who ports code across many CPU archs, especially slower ones
(embedded anyone?) such hint could be important to discover inefficiency
hotspots.
