mod_deflate plus Sander's patch benchmarks.

Hey all,

Just wanted to give a few details about svn with Sander's neon patch, and a
server with mod_deflate.

This was on a checkout of trunk rev 1270:

Results from time:

Normal
real 5m44.375s
user 1m10.340s
sys 0m25.610s

Deflated
real 5m0.809s
user 1m13.050s
sys 0m23.680s

That's a 12.6% improvement in time, and I don't think the network is my
biggest bottleneck. :)

Another interesting note is the size of the ethereal log files for the two
different checkouts.

kevin@pilchie:~/public_html [513]$ ll eth*
-rw-r--r-- 1 kevin users 1.5M Feb 14 15:16 eth-deflate.og
-rw-r--r-- 1 kevin users 13M Feb 15 10:05 eth-no-deflate.log

Now purists (who examine the log), will see that eth-no-deflate does grab a
few more files, but still this is a _HUGE_ savings.
