 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.

 Cheers! -Damian
