As Deepak said, we are taking a look over Brice's patches right now. Initially we'll target them at 3.0 and then we'll probably move on to back porting and tuning a bit on 2.7 after we have 3.0 stabilized. At the same time we have been taking a look at the catalog retrieval time problem. Based on the discussion that we had a while ago on this list, I think the plan of attack is to remove the YAML translation for the caching. I haven't seen any numbers for the speed improvement that we get for that yet.
Daniel, you are working on the YAML caching, right? Have you had a chance to profile before and after the patch with a realistic setup to see what kind of improvement we might expect from that change?
