Good thing serra is bored anyway.
Thanks!

metrics-lib.
In looking back at our "Python metrics-lib' thread from 3/25/12 it looks
like stem was slower with uncompressed tarballs, but not disastrously so.
It's something that would be really nice to fix, but probably isn't
critical for this.
{{{
Ahh, you're right. I tried again with a uncompressed tarball and the
runtime for the same cached descriptor was 7.94 seconds (0.0059
seconds per entry). That's about 1.5x slower than a plaintext
descriptor which bad, but not outside the realm of being reasonable.
