I see, however... I prefer to have a correct answer instead of an incorrect one, even if the correct one takes longer. That goes _especially_ for testing and maintaining work. Every time people compare portage to paludis I read stuff like "but paludis is slower". That is incomplete information to put it diplomatic. Do you really care so much about speed that you don't mind wrong results?
