Is that actually true (especially for the Portage case)? I'd suspect that portage sometimes tends to be slow, because of the myriad of files it has to deal with. So it's I/O which is slow. Would that problem go away, if the "engine" would be rewritten in C++? Alexander -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
