I was re-reading the whole series, and found that the phrase
"present significant benefits" was somewhat overselling.  Wouldn't
that claim largely depend on the end-user's workflow?  The same
comment applies to the description of "at least 5" level, too.

I would not mind if we say "enabling this may present performance
benefits", with or without "significant" before "performance
benefits", and with or without ", depending how your repository is
used" at the end.

Thanks.
