Comment (by warner):

 I did a quick test at home with a {{{def msg(*args,**kwargs):pass}}} in
 {{{src/allmydata/util/log.py}}}, and didn't see a noticable change (the
 noise level was pretty high, so even if there were a 10% difference, I
 probably wouldn't have been able to spot it).

 In some other testing at work, I was unable to see a consistent
 performance difference between 171 and my comment:65 combo-patch, but the
 speed was warbling all over the place, so I don't feel that it was a very
 conclusive run. I'd patched both to only use a single server (nszi?), to
 reduce the variables.

 What I'd like to do is to run a series of tests from my home network (no
 other traffic) using my personal backupgrid server (no other traffic), to
 see how consistent the results are. Maybe tomorrow I'll get a chance to
 try that.
