Hi,
the current e-file tool of app-portage/pfl is written in bash. e-file is
a CLI tool which searches portagefilelist.de for a given file and list
additional informations based on the local portage. Latter is done by
grep'ing through the ebuild files which is fast but IMHO not very smart.
I rewrote e-file in python by using the portage API [1]. But loading the
API slows down the whole script. Is there any way to speed up my
implementation? Have I done something fundamentally wrong?
Thanks in advance
Daniel
