I've never tried to benchmark it, but I've gotten the following impressions:

- If you use Tight over ssh, it's best to turn off compression.  It doesn't
help and just increases the latency.
- Tight really helps over dialin lines, but over anything faster
Hextile+compression is faster and seems to have
  less latency.
- Tight causes more update artifacts than Hextile. (Stuff that should be
updated and is left behind instead.)

These are just things I've noticed in casual use.

Is it just me or does Hextile encoding with SSH compression seem to work
better than any version of Tight?
