I identified a possible area of speed improvement in the upload merging code. If anybody is interested in a small programming project, I can point them to the code in question. It will need quite a bit of testing to which I can't quite devote enough time right now. One can use pomerge offline to do the merging. This will of course blindly overwrite existing translations in the "template" (old) translations files. Pootle does more by checking for conflicts, changing things conflicts into suggestions, etc. This is partly why it also takes longer. If people know what they do, of course there are some shortcuts that can be taken. But please, make sure that people understand that "overwrite" really means overwrite - the previous file is gone (unless we start using some underlying version control system for the PO files on the server).
