Comment(by amosrobinson):

 I'm sorry, I've kind of dropped the ball on this. So, SpecConstr is
 definitely blowing up (235,000 to 3,000,000 or something). But! Before
 that, the simplifier is blowing up from 5,000 to 235,000. I know a certain
 amount of increase is expected from inlining in the simplifier, but this
 seems excessive.
 So I suspect it's actually inlining too much?

 I don't have a good example, but #7928 looks like it might be easier to
 get into a standalone test case.
