Re: [Monotone-devel] [patch] roster-deltas (40% pull speedup)

[Eric Anderson]

Nathaniel,
        If you're going to do this big change, it may also be worth
switching over to binary rosters deltas as well, as in
464e510af4959231ff63352c902c689b0f1687aa; which measured a somewhat
lower improvement for the pull (1.2x) than your 40% speedup, but also
had the side effect of making annotate fast in most cases.  Since
there is already all of the netio.hh stuff, binary formats are
portable and about as easy as the text ones.
