I found this useful for trying to guage the impact of https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/rust-wasm/issues/81#issuecomment-371617046 for example, and I imagine it would be useful for anyone working with LEB128 in general.

For the purpose of determining lengths though, isn't it just 7 bits per byte?

...yes... >_<
