These are all good ideas.
Absent any measurement data that says that any of this matters, I
suggest we ignore the issue (premature optimization...) The single
pole IIR is implemented inline and requires 2 multiplies and 1 add per
sample, versus 1 procedure call, 1 multiply and 1 add for the FIR.
I doubt the DC removal is above 1% of the CPU consumption of the
receiver. oprofile would give us real data.
