Summary:

Tamas Blummer has processed bitcoin history with filters using P=19 M=784931. The findings reveal that the output script + spent script filters (Wuille’s (b)) are approximately 0.2% of block size and are about 10% smaller than output script + spent outpoint filters (Wuille's (a)). However, savings have been trending lower over the years. Two graphs have been attached to support the findings.
