Hi Bryce,

I should start by saying the execution time of bash-completion depends a
lot of the amount of software installed in any particular computer. I
posted the this bug based on my experience with a laptop which I no
longer have. While the machine was older its specs weren't very bad --
AMD Turion X2 1.8GHz dual core, 2 GB RAM. I just tested bash-completion
on a small server with similar specifications but far less software
installed. Here are the stats.

nasko@chow:~$ time bash /etc/bash_completion

real    0m0.787s
user    0m0.632s
sys     0m0.148s

nasko@chow:~$ time bash empty_script
bash: exit: No such file or directory

real    0m0.007s
user    0m0.008s
sys     0m0.000s

The difference in real execution time is almost 0.8s.
