I realize now that these two options don't have to be mutually
exclusive and I should provide a good fallback in terms of performance
anyway.

So Elijah, could you try this patch and see if performance and pack
size go back to 1.7.0? I can write proper commit message and test
support later if it proves a good improvement.
