What sort of pictures were on the survey? What settings were used, etc?

 I just tested the change (using the settings currently at beta cluster). On
the first image I tried (a screenshot, which might not be representative of the
average content of a png file due to the large amount of small text, but it was
something already on my test wiki) the quality was noticeably less (although
possibly still in the acceptable range) with bucketing (and things got even
worse if one used bucketting + vips).

Another way to test:

Run
http://upload.beta.wmflabs.org/wikipedia/labs/thumb/8/8b/Bn.beta.wmflabs.org.PNG/310px-Bn.beta.wmflabs.org.PNG
through exiftool, you get:

 [..]
 Thumb Imageheight               : 1024
 Thumb Image Width               : 1280
 Thumb URI                       :
file:///data/project/upload7/wikipedia/labs/8/8b/Bn.beta.wmflabs.org.PNG
 [..]

Which would be different if bucketing was working
