Quite different. The 'reuse' would then reduce to copying small chunks
of code, but some FFC can definitely be inspired by the latest work by
Martin on reduced caching.
However, we could have an optimisation option -fsfc (with a better
name of course) which would use the SFC graph strategy to generate
code, it would need to modify
parts of the SFC generator code, but large parts could be reused.

Are those timings for SFC code, or FFC non-optimised code?
I'm sure FFC compares terrible to SFC in this case.
