random minor benchmark: Re: Copy 20 tarfiles: ext2 vs (reiser4, unixfile) vs (reiser4,cryptcompress)

[Hans Reiser <reiser@namesys.com>]

Notice how CPU speed (and number of cpus) completely determines
compression performance.

cryptcompress refers to the reiser4 compression plugin, (unix file)
refers to the reiser4 non-compressing plugin.
