4 True, but then you allways do all searches using esearch, (or eix,
5 but I never used that) and in that case you do the search from
6 some form of preindexed database that resides locally.

8 As to the original question, a raid0 will naturally be
9 theoretically faster when reading several small files
10 simultaneously. But depending on bandwidth of your HD-controller,
11 writing might (in theory) be slower if you don't have
12 HW-accellerated RAID.
