This post is interesting, it indicates that we could get somewhat better performance if we emitted THUMB-2 instructions (compressed ARM) instead of plain ARM instructions. THUMB-2 has an insanely complex encoding though so writing the emitters for that won't be fun.. Also not likely to help more than a few % I guess.
