I remember this one time when management started thinking about using "lines of code" as a metric for productivity of us software developers.

I very openly offered to craft a bunch ot code generators, namelly "loop unrollers" (which is something compillers do internally at the compilation stage in some situations for improve performance) for me and my colleagues to produce more code.

That idea for a performance metric was quickly shelved after that...
