Yes. What I meant by statement however is that the performance gain i.e. 
difference in performance between using and not using bloom filters, is not 
always as dramatic if the history is sparse and the trees aren't touched 
as often. So it is largely dependent on the shape of the repo and the shape
of the commit graph.

Yeah. Git and Linux served as nice initial test beds. If you have any 
suggestions for interesting repos it would be worth running performanc 
investigations on, do let me know!

I will look into this after I get v1 out on the mailing list. 
Thanks!
