One thing about this 4-27 snap, and I noticed it with 4-03 as well (which I reverted from a while ago) is that disk i/o appears to be ridiculously slow in comparison to 1.5.19. In rough estimation, I'd have to say a 50% reduction in I/O throughput. I notice it while working with mass updating of files and builds. Is there any form of profiling, etc. enabled in the snap builds? As even if there were zero optimization, it wouldn't be this noticably slow.
