// subsequent CFG transformations, such as OSR entrypoint creation, perturb our
// ability to do accurate static estimations. Hence we lock in the estimates early.
// Ideally, we would have dynamic information, but we don't right now, so this is as
// good as it gets.
//
// It's worth noting that if we didn't have this phase, then the static estimation
// would be perfomed by LLVM instead. It's worth trying to make this phase perform
// the estimates using the same heuristics that LLVM would use.
