[Nmh-workers] Performance testing of nmh

[Ken Hornstein]

A little while ago Ralph mentioned how he was trying to do some basic
performance testing on nmh changes over the years; see his email here:

I am wondering if we should standardize on a set of messages for performance
tests.  A quick Googling around actually shows one interesting candidate:
the emall corpus collected as part of the Enron investigation.

Maybe we could develop some quick performance measuring tools; might be
worth some time, and we'd all be working from the same source?  Just a
thought.
