Warning about zipalignment

Just uploaded a necessitas created apk package to google play, and it warns:

The apk is not zipaligned. Please run the zipalign tool on the APK to 
improve performance on the device. See the Developer's Guide 
<http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/zipalign.html> for 
more information.

Manually running

zipalign -v 4 android/bin/LovesMe-signed.apk ~/projects/APKs/LovesMe100.apk

makes the warning go away.   I have no idea what kind of performance 
improvement we are talking about,
http://developer.android.com/resources/articles/zipalign.html lacks any 
hard numbers.

Cheers,

Harri
