Subroutines for a variable pixel font

Glyphs
1

With my complex font, Glyphs suggested at one point to add a Disable Subroutines parameter to speed up export, so I did.

If there are quite a few repeated shapes in my design, in the end do I want to re-enable subroutines (and be super patient with the generation time)–will that result in a smaller font file?

Variable fonts are exported as TrueType. So subroutines are not relevant here. But it can keep components.
