[Soot-list] Bytecode generated by Soot

Hi Mario.

In general it could be faster or slower. I think in general you won't
see much of a difference at all, though. I don't think that anybody
has ever studied that. From what I remember, Soot applies some few
optimizations by default, so probably the code would rather run a
little faster than slower.
