This is a good idea that I hadn't thought of. What this would really test 
is what the benefit of *immediate* recompression, as opposed to delayed 
recompression.  We already know that quicker is better, but I don't think 
we have a quantitative take on the magnitude of "better".  Problem is, 
IWR involves many other factors (e.g., environmental) that are difficult 
to test for.
