Upgraded to 3.0-current a couple of weeks ago. Have been poking around
and playing. Still haven't done a proper cleanup of /etc. But did get
around to enabling softupdates this morning.

Curious to know if it does any good I ran "time cvs -q update -P -d"
four times against /usr/src using /home/ncvs as the CVSROOT. Considering
nothing was changing this is essentially a no-op operation. With only
rc5des running (no X, no net connection) this took between 17:22 and
17:39 to complete each iteration. With softupdates on all but root,
11:31 to 11:37.

System is a PPro166/512k OC'ed to 210 MHz. 64MB. Asus SC875 SCSI. IBM
DCHS09W (9G, wide, fast-not-ultra).
