hmm, but that does not really answer my question. There's still a communication barrier if you're parsing the commit messages are committers don't clearly state some performance improvement numbers for the reason I stated. I also don't agree these should be left to "Source code" section. I feel that section is best suited for extension authors who might care about some internal API change. I'm talking of stuff that makes some user queries possibly N times (!) faster. Surely "Source Code" isn't the place to talk about that? David
