Description

We had the following output:

```
+7.9% -270Ki programs.cpp.o
```

Which caused a bit of confusion: the size decreased absolutely, but the percentage increased?

I think it would be less confusing if the percentage was not a fraction of the new size, but instead a ratio of the new and old size.
