  Speaking of performance, here is a small interesting bench:

  The underling repository is a not so old linux-2.6 git repository.
git-log is the default unstable git-log, (a pristine 1.5.3.1,
pre-new-strbuf).

  ~/dev/scm/git/git-log is obviously the new one with the whole strbuf
patch series applied. Strbufs definitely made the code more readable (at
least it's my impression), here is the proof that it did not affected an
inch from performance (we even seem to have a marginal 0.5% gain in
performance ;p).
