Latest report from that upstream thread is initial memory reductions of |
8 |
of 18-21% depending on the repository, with a runtime variance of -6 to |
9 |
+2%. The Gentoo repo took 6% less time, but the linux-kernel repo took |
10 |
2% longer. Linus and co are exploring that now, just to make sure they |
11 |
didn't introduce any bugs. |

Maciej started the best discussion on that, in Message-ID |
21 |
200902160805.55088.reavertm@××××××.fm. Think we managed to flesh out all |
22 |
of a specification there, but I don't think anybody has started |
23 |
development yet. The development side would probably tie in quite well |
24 |
with unfinished GLEP60. |
