-* Fetches from 2a to 2a are now again requested in 'groupcompress' order,
-  and all texts are recombined appropriately. This doesn't reuse existing
-  groups, which will be measurable in some specific circumstances - an
-  approximately 25% overhead. However, doing this ensures high performance
-  reads subsequent to the fetch operation, which is the most common
-  operation: write once read many. (Robert Collins, #402652)
+* Fetches from 2a to 2a are now again requested in 'groupcompress' order.
+  Groups that are seen as 'underutilized' will be repacked on-the-fly.
+  This means that when the source is fully packed, there is minimal
+  overhead during the fetch, but if the source is poorly packed the result
+  is a fairly well packed repository (not as good as 'bzr pack' but
+  good-enough.) (Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel, #402652)
 
 * Fix a segmentation fault when computing the ``merge_sort`` of a graph
   that has a ghost in the mainline ancestry.
