Thanks, Bo! |

I removed /var/cache/edb, added "-metadata-transfer" to "FEATURES" and |
| 25 |
then put "portdbapi.auxdbmodule = cache.metadata_overlay.database" |
| 26 |
in "/etc/portage/modules". After the first "emerge -DuN world -p" which |
| 27 |
took about 6min to rebuild the cache now the performance is back to |
| 28 |
normal: emerge -DuN world takes about 1min - 1min30sec |
