Hey, it was eventually noticed :-)

Would be nice if linux-next posted a daily before/after commit
bloatometer stats top list - unfortunately this would be pretty
time consuming to acquire due to the many rebasing Git trees.

With a proper Git workflow enforced it would be a few dozen
kernel builds per release, easily done on a fast enough box.

Thanks,
