Well, obviously Jonathan thought something else. But he provides patches from time to time so I have some hopes that it means he's interested to look into the issue. :-) > But still, I see a lot of slowness when building packages on > m68k that is probably overlooked elsewhere; things where packages’ > binary-arch makefile-depends on an excessive binary-indep (is this > a bug? if so, I’ll report against git), dh5/dh7/cdbs relative slow- > ness (and other home-brewn build systems which are even worse), etc. I don't see why binary-arch should depend on binary-indep, but maybe the git maintainer has a reason. Ask him, Jonathan is almost co-maintaining it. :-) > >Thorsten, can you generate the profiling data on your machine so that we > >have a better idea of how it runs for you? > > Sure.

The output does not differ much from my own run except that it takes several seconds instead of a few milliseconds. It seems really that perl is just slow on your setup. The biggest part of the time is spent on the main code which does really nothing fancy. Maybe accessing %ENV is really slow for some reason... I don't know.
