One practical note: write down what you did and when, before you need it.

True, and it depends on a baseline nobody has stated. Without knowing where someone started, the same number can be an excellent result or a disappointing one.

I would rather be corrected than agreed with, if it comes to it.

This answered a question I did not know how to ask. I will report back once I have actually tried it.

Moderator note: good thread. Keeping it here rather than moving it, because the question is general enough to be useful.

This is my experience too, for whatever a second data point is worth. Posting only so the count is not one.

Adding the part of the answer the thread has not reached. Order of operations matters more than any single choice here: establish a baseline, change one thing, wait long enough for it to express itself, then measure again under the same conditions.
