At least for risc targets length is usually pretty boring, but this is
not the length of machine insns, RTL insns instead, making it more
insteresting; and when it is wrong it leads to hard to debug problems,
and we don't have this info easily accessible elsewhere.  Similar goes
for the insn_cost: if you need to debug it, the -dp output is a very
convenient place to quickly get an overview of what we generate.
