In fact, isn't that progress meter _solely_ about finding the best
matches? The actual deltification (that is, the creation of the deltas
and writing of them to the packfile happens during the writing phase --
unless, of course, we've cached the deltas during the search phase).

Perhaps one of:

  Finding deltas
  Finding delta candidates
  Matching objects

or something similar (though I don't especially like any of them, I
think you get the idea).
