Questions about using `assert` in Java

[Andrew Luo]

Thanks, I see.  Then I wonder if we should consider the size of a function with assertions removed when making JIT inline decisions?  Since at JIT time I presume whether assertions are turned on or off is known – or is it too inefficient to calculate this metric?

Thanks,
-Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Maybe the first one of this FAQ could answer your question:
