Maybe that's a stupid idea, but I wonder whether removing empty |
8 |
PROVIDE files from the vardb could save some time here. I see |

that in grabfile(), if the file can't be opened, then an empty |
10 |
list is returned, so it would have the same behavior. Does |
11 |
reading an empty file takes more time than failing to open a |
12 |
non-existing one? (Yep, I don't know much about how filesystems |
13 |
actually work...) |
