This increases the speed significantly. But the drawback is that the code size increases and this increase is not always neglectable. +The speed increase has one drawback: the inline functions might not set +@code{errno} and might not have the same precission as the library +functions. + In cases where the inline functions and macros are not wanted the symbol @code{__NO_MATH_INLINES} should be defined before any system header is included. This will make sure only library functions are used. Of
