I've been thinking for a while that grub-probe does a few too many things, perhaps if it is split in separate commands, and the upper layer makes appropiate use of them (e.g. by remembering results so they don't need to be re-obtained), we could optimize this without need for a cache in the lower layer. -- Robert Millan The DRM opt-in fallacy: "Your data belongs to us.
