I think David's questions are sufficiently cogent and difficult
that we should not add jit_warn_above_fraction at this time.
Maybe we'll eventually decide it's the best we can do; but I do
not think we have a problem there that's so pressing that we need
to rush out a partially-baked bandaid. Especially not at the
tail end of the development cycle, with not much time to gain
experience with it before we ship.
