Thread dumping a few job configuration saves, the all sit on this
stacktrace (even non-Maven builds):

Looking into the code, what this does is that the last thing Hudson do
on saving a job configuration is to recalculate the dependency graph
between all jobs. The DependencyGraph code warns that this is slow,
looks like it will loop over all jobs which in turn will loop over all
jobs... And in our pretty large environment, this adds up pretty fast.
If anyone got any idea, besides asking the Hudson devs to optimize
this code, feel free to speak up :-)
