I have not done some stats, indeed. :-) The build/download or rebuild/redownload is really faster (at least for some R packages) than the graft part for some machines with spinning disks. Well, I have been enough annoyed for some packages on that machine to end by systematically run the '--no-grafts' option for all packages. :-/ Cheers, simon
