ATM, from my machine, xml-rpc requests to PyPI are taking about .27 seconds. This is only a little less than regular page requests. With the current API, It would require at best 3 requests to get all of the distribution URLs. Presumably, with a change to the API, we could get this down to one request, but that's still a long time given the demand I expect on PyPI in the future. It would be so much simpler to just publish a static page for each package that setuptools could parse. I'll try to prototype this. Jim -- Jim Fulton mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Python Powered!
