fwiw hiera isn't caching - there was a caching yaml backend floating around not sure what the status was of that but it would be interesting to see if using that help you. But for heavy users there is definitely some win to be had from looking at putting some caching into your backend. I am not sure now but maybe it was Eric Shamow who had this maybe he can point us at that code -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Developers" group.
