It will only enhance it.
Is that like "it's not a bug, it's a feature!"? Will it still take hours to load a new source tree? Do you understand that most of us don't have a lan connection to the repo? Will it still download and parse the ENTIRE TREE every single time you wake up zmd, even if you just wanted to quickly install something?
We already did a couple of optimizations with our latest update regarding download of metadata.
AFAIK exactly these issues are not addressed as such. I'm always amazed how critical some bugs are once they're found - but how long it takes to find them and how long it takes to report them in bugzilla (I only found bug 200071 reporting this - and that's 4 days old).
We addressed another issue - the downloading of packages. So, instead of downloading 100 MB of packages, you might need to download only a few MB,

What last update? I did an update 2 days ago and Im still downloading 17M files everytime zmd moves. E-Mail disclaimer: http://www.sunspace.co.za/emaildisclaimer.htm
