We probably won't get a perfect lengthGoal hit (hence "goal" in the name). And we almost certainly won't get a perfect fragmentAlignment ratio with before/after -- it should perhaps also have "goal" in the name. So whatever the solution is will have some inherent fuzziness to it. This is probably all obvious to you but I just want to state I'm aware you can poke lots of holes in my proposal. I just think we can do a bit better than your original proposal by using some more information. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
