parameter experiment repeated with more data

The latest of my attempts to characterize the effects of varying
Robinson's s and the minimum deviation parameter in bogofilter is a
repeat of the previous one, with many more data.  The writeup at
http://www.bgl.nu/bogofilter/smindev3.html has been updated
accordingly.  It begins to appear as though it would be generally good
for bogofilter to ship with s set to 0.1 and the minimum deviation as
high as 0.44 -- though these settings may require a well-trained
database (several thousand each of spam and nonspam messages) to be
effective.
