Are you kidding me?! a.b.dvd ate up your 4gb swap in 0.114. I knew this was a good patch, surely you're not telling me it saved 4gb??
When I got up it was done downloading. 1.6gb/2.0gb no swap used. Downloading a test iso now to see that there are not any hiccups.
> Looks like you get a A++ on this one Charles. I've done a little more testing on this now. I put some print statements in to count how many bytes were saved. For a one-month sample of a.b.dvd, (465420691 bytes, == 443.8 meg) were saved. Pan's footprint was 506 meg, and just starting up Pan costs 33 meg, so a.b.dvd cost (506-33 == 473) meg. So it looks the cost for large groups is cut about in half. I haven't looked at smaller groups yet. They should be helped a little but not as big a percentage as the big groups. The more parts an article has, the more this patch will help.
