This produces shorter and faster code. The speed-up depends greatly on the workload - so here are some examples:
File: mesa-18.3.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz from [1]
Before: 1.66s user 0.15s system 100% cpu 1.814 total 1.61s user 0.21s system 100% cpu 1.820 total 1.69s user 0.15s system 100% cpu 1.832 total
After: 1.62s user 0.17s system 100% cpu 1.782 total 1.66s user 0.14s system 100% cpu 1.800 total 1.63s user 0.15s system 100% cpu 1.781 total
File: mesa-18.3.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz renamed to foo.bar Note: due to the rename, the build-in python extractor is used.
Before: 687.76s user 2.19s system 99% cpu 11:30.68 total
After: 390.73s user 1.37s system 99% cpu 6:32.72 total
Hey everyone, just to clarify: The above numbers are indicative when using the (old) shell script as well as with master. Although if people prefer I can drop the numbers all together :-) Regards, Emil
