This one seems to do benchmarking with 8MB buffers if I read it right 
(didn't try).
Yes, I just wanted to have the biggest time spent in inflate(). That why I 
use a big buffer.
Right. But if the biggest time is spent in setup, the big-buffer thing 
ends up being exactly the wrong thing to test ;)
Definitely. The nature of the data matters.
Did you try to make a zlib with my patch and oprofile git on real data 
with that?
I haven't actually set it up so that I can build against my own zlib yet. 
Exactly because I was hoping that somebody would already have a solution 
;)

Will try to do later today, although since it's the kids school 
conferences today I'll effectively be in and out all day long.
