Hi guys,

        Norbert pointed out to me that one of the slowest pieces of our install
is the:

        'checking files with ARCHIVE flags' ...

        Phase in the make_installer.pl foo, which burns a ton of CPU time for
no aparently good reason.

        Last I looked it seemed that we were using the perl Zip functionality
to list files in a .zip and/or to un-compress it to /tmp for some
reason.

        I believe we use .zip files as an easy way to package up a chunk of
source code directory - say containing a template structure, into a
bundle; and then install it en-masse in a simple rule and (more to the
point) a single scp2 entry :-)

        With the new make infrastructure / changes to scp2 - it would be just
wonderful if we could stop: zipping that stuff during the build, and
then unzipping it to /tmp during some very slow phase of
make_installer.pl - and then copying it into the install-set; and simply
copy it straight in ;->

        Hopefully that no longer busts some conceptual flow ?

        ATB,

                Michael.
