------- Additional Comments From acedit AT armory.com  2005-08-02 14:50 -------
the main slowdown is list_add being slow i think. Other parts are slow due to
excessive forking. In particular url_expand_urls, url_get_valid_urls, and the
bucketization. In that order. We should avoid repeated calls to 
url_get_prefix,
maybe find a way to cache that, and/or use upvars in place of forks.

This reminds me that we probably should set some sort of threshold on the
maximum number of mirrors expanded. After the urls are sorted the list should 
be
truncated; that would avoid having 400 some mirrors to slog through (both in
internal processing and before sorcery declares the file cant be found). Not
that fixing up these slower bits isn't important. Also, Im not certain all 
those
kernel mirrors are valid, so we'll have to look through them and cull 
out-dated
ones.

In summary:
fix expanding code to drop "Custom"
fix code to not use list_add, use better placed greps instead
fix url_get_valid_urls/url_default_is_valid to run faster
fix bucketizer to run slightly faster
cache url to prefix
limit max number of urls expanded/sorted
