This philosophy is embraced by the developers working on WebKit: in fact, the code responsible for rendering a typical web page averages just 2.1 effective C++ statements per function in WebKit, compared to 6.3 for Firefox - and an estimated count of 7.1 for Internet Explorer.

What is an "effective C++ statement"? That's a really odd measure and I can't get my head around it.
