"Flattening" the catalog is something that we have discussed before [1] and which would give imho quite some improvements. However, we would likely loose important context information, that should then be preserved differently. Coming back to the "Bug": I think swapping the statement would give already some improvement and is a fix that could go into the next (bugfix)-release. Given that there are no concerns regarding possible side effects. Still it shows that there is room for improvement in general within this area that should be part of a bigger review, re-architecture. Nevertheless, I think we should also make the tiny steps that don't hurt but give some improvement. ~pete [1] https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/puppet-dev/BPvuDlb67WE -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlL1bjwACgkQbwltcAfKi3/WRgCfUi/M9D1pebXlxs/QImwkXOV3 h9MAn1TEGLKJJvdezC1ZGZZNTxHEpVgY =IAtQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Developers" group.
