Performance benchmarks in README about bootsnap HOT 3 CLOSED

FWIW, I've been seeing a ~50% improvement in boot times, using a file-based caching solution instead of the xattr implementation (see #25). (The xattr implementation may be faster, but it only supports OSX.)

I've been experimenting with booting code-dot-org, a large Rails app containing lots of translations within YAML files.

Without caching, the app loads in ~30 seconds, with caching it loads in ~15 seconds.

When loading only English locale, the app loads in ~5.7 seconds without caching, and ~2.7 seconds with.

• Discourse reports a boot time reduction of approximately 50%, from roughly 6 to 3 seconds on one machine;
• One of our smaller internal apps also sees a reduction of 50%, from 3.6 to 1.8 seconds;
• Our core platform -- a rather large monolithic application -- boots about 75% faster, dropping from around 25s to 6.5s.

I'll add this to the readme
