Created an attachment (id=327570)
small benchmark showing diff between PointF and equivalent struct

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US;
rv:1.9.0.15) Gecko/2009101600 Firefox/3.0.15

I wrote a tiny, non-scientific benchmark that suggests the X and Y properties
on System.Drawing.PointF might not be inlined. I am getting worse performance
with PointF than I am doing the same calculations with a struct that has public
x and y fields.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run the attached code on a phone or the simulator

It will report back that the Vector2F struct has better performance than
PointF. 

I talked with Geoff Norton in #monotouch and he thought it's possibly a bug
with the inliner, and asked me to file this.
Actual Results:  
Vertex2F gets roughly 2x better performance than PointF when accessing X and Y
often.

Expected Results:  
They should be about the same.
