Package: apt-xapian-index
Version: 0.45
Cataloged_times is simply a Python dictionary object. Other serialisation
methods are
faster than pickle at handling simple data types like this. On my low powered
atom Netbook
this file takes 1.4 seconds to load. When I use the same data with the msgpack
python module
it takes only 0.1 seconds. Also the filesize is reduced from 3.1MB to 1.7MB.
This might not seem like a huge deal but on older/atom/arm based PC's all these
little times add up.
My proposal is that the pickle serialisation in cataloged_times.py be replaced
with the offerings
from the msgpack module.
