Georg said that in his case it could be as long as 20 seconds because of

It don't think it'll take that long (for one scan). I used to have a full
TeXLive installation and several hundreds of bibfiles, and my thesis used 10
different bibfiles. The scanning never took me any longer than 2 seconds.
Well, that's 2 second gained :-)
I can imagine that it would take much longer if your bibfiles were on
the netwrk though... In this case, I suspect that my patch will bring a
big saving.
Could you test the attached patch nevertheless? Or Georg maybe?
I've tested it with some of the bibtex files in my MikTex installation
and it works fine. I am not a user of BibTeX myself so I will wait for
Georg (and others) opinion on this matter before committing it.
Yes. Tomorrow.
Fine, thanks,
Abdel.
