For compilation I can't tell you, but for inlining a special case can occur:

At the time, where method a, which calls method b, becomes compiled, the 
threshold for inlining b might not have been reached.
If later the threshold for inlining b theoretically will be reached, 
there is kinda bad chance to become inlined then. But in extrem cases 
there is some chance to become inlined later by result of the HotSpot 
profiler.
This case may be missed by the HotSpot logger ???

If I'm wrong, someone may correct me.
