Could you duplicate `RECORD_INST` before each `INSTRUCTION_N`, so that:

```

   INSTRUCTION_1:
     // subroutine 1
     ip++;
     goto *dispatch_var[*ip];

   INSTRUCTION_2:
     // subroutine 2
     ip++;
     goto *dispatch_var[*ip];
```

becomes: ```

   RECORD_INST_1:
     // record logic
   INSTRUCTION_1:
     // subroutine 1
     ip++;
     goto *dispatch_var[*ip];

   RECORD_INST_2:
     // record logic
   INSTRUCTION_2:
     // subroutine 2
     ip++;
     goto *dispatch_var[*ip];
```

This way you could directly swap `dispatch_var` with an array populated with the `RECORD_INST_*` labels, and remove one step at runtime.

Or maybe this is what you are trying to avoid to reduce the binary size ?

That sounds smart, maybe worth testing, but I think it bloats the instruction cache even when not tracing.
