I also suggest that improving the speed would be very nice. Your test repeated on a Pentium M 1.6 GHz, 512 MB RAM:
nc6000:~$ time apt-cache show lsb>&- real 0m0.017s user 0m0.015s sys 0m0.003s nc6000:~$ time aptitude show lsb>&- real 0m2.170s user 0m2.110s sys 0m0.056s nc6000:~$ and on a Pentium MMX 166 MHz, 160 MB RAM: szrenica:~# time apt-cache show lsb>&- real 0m0.137s user 0m0.075s sys 0m0.032s szrenica:~# time aptitude show lsb>&- real 0m14.684s user 0m13.840s sys 0m0.814s szrenica:~# Besides that scrolling, moving the bar etc is very slow in aptitude. On a Pentium MMX 166 MHz it feels that aptitude is able to move the bar down in a slower rate than I am able to press the arrow key. -- Miernik _________________________ xmpp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___________________/_______________________/ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Protect Europe from a legal disaster.
