Oh say it ain't so! Upgrading to 1.8.0c3 from 1.7.1 will make your
large file downloads go about half as fast as they used to?

I really hope that this was some sort of glitch in your test rig.
Could you please re-run this experiment a dozen times or so and post
the results?

I've updated #1170 to say Alas, it appears there may be still a
critical performance regression which blocks the 1.8.0 release. :-(
