Implicit stdin based on standard input being a pipe or regular
file is here to stay, so save users the trouble of typing '-'
or '--stdin'.

Inline::C is required as of commit 1d6e1f9a6a66 (lei: require
Socket::MsgHdr or Inline::C, drop oneshot, 2021-05-26); but
Socket::MsgHdr still gives a noticeable improvement in bash
completion speed.

Also, spell-out "MESSAGE-ID" since "MID" is actually not a
common abbreviation ("MSGID" is used by RFC 3977 and several
other RFCs, I recall).

 =head1 PERFORMANCE NOTES
 
-L<Inline::C> is recommended for performance.  To enable it, create
-C<~/.cache/public-inbox/inline-c/>.
+L<Inline::C> is required, lei runs as a background daemon to reduce
+startup costs and can provide real-time L<kqueue(2)>/L<inotify(7)>
+Maildir monitoring.  L<IO::KQueue> (p5-IO-KQueue on FreeBSD) and
+L<Linux::Inotify2> (liblinux-inotify2-perl and perl-Linux-Inotify2 in
+.deb and .rpm-based distros, respectively) are recommended.
 
-If Socket::MsgHdr is installed (libsocket-msghdr-perl in Debian), the
-first invocation of lei starts a daemon, reducing the startup cost of
-for future invocations (which is particularly important for Bash
-completion).
+L<Socket::MsgHdr> is optional (libsocket-msghdr-perl in Debian),
+and further improves startup performance.  Its effect is most felt
+when using shell completion.
