Thanks for your reply Mark. Presumably you want to keep ^oddCOM small because it gets referenced at runtime, and smaller means faster.

How about giving us a compile-time choice about this, akin to the "k" option to keep INT source?

Or adding a property to %Dictionary.CompiledMethod called, say, ActualImplementation, whose stream you'd initialize in a property-get method? Perhaps you'd load the stream my running the relevant generator code, like Paul Waterman suggests in his comment on this post.
