RE: Performance

2000-12-14 Thread Pyatt, Scott
Performance can be addressed several ways. If you have a somewhat large module, but you only need a subset of it, consider either breaking the module up into smaller modules or creating entries in the modules file such that when you perform a "cvs get module" you are only receiving what you need.
