Re: [PATCH] diff-delta: bound hash list length to avoid O(m*n) behavior

	The first round.  The set of objects packed were from
today's Linus tip (everything down to epoch v2.6.12-rc2), 193309
objects in total, on my Duron 750 with slow disks.

	  real		user		sys		bytes		savings
master  11m17.121s	10m23.280s	0m47.290s       109045599	N/A
nico	  25m37.058s	23m0.770s       2m20.460s	104401392	4.25%
jc	  24m12.072s	21m45.120s	2m16.400s	104409761	4.25%

Minor correction in numbers.  The size for nico and jc are
swapped.  jc variant created the smallest pack in this
experiment.

Which puzzles me even more...
