Bug#608247: dpkg-architecture is slow

2010-12-29 Thread Thorsten Glaser
Raphael Hertzog dixit: with concrete optimizations, a bug report saying it's slow is useless. I never meant this as bug report, just a sort of heads-up. If it is unfixable, unless things are rewritten in non-Perl, that’s the way it is. But still, I see a lot of slowness when building packages on
