We should revisit bug 1473330 at some point. Well-written C code will typically have a bloat factor of binaries 1-3x the size of their source code. So it stands to reason that C++ shouldn't be much more than an order of magnitude worse than that. The Mir code is presently several orders of magnitude worse right now, so we should look at ways to further reduce bloat in future.
Sounds reasonable.
