It continues to amaze me how much you have in there. Oh, and my times earlier were probably user time rather than wall time, for which I'll shiftily blame the difference between csh's time builtin and /usr/bin/time. Redoing that: portmaster -L | filterfu: 43.6 pkg_version -vl'<': 30.5 portversion -vl'<': 3.6 portmaster -L --index-only: 2.5 As a bonus, the last one is not only the fastest but provides more useful information. Off to change my update script...
