OK, but I leave the benchmark for you;-) Note: Long "dependency paths" like in smoke001.py may cause notable slowdown. I made a quick "hack", so probably I made some mistakes...

I couldn't measure any difference. pacman always need ~3.5 seconds for running smoke001.

Because it is an add transaction;-) I just said that it contains a long dependency path, which can cause notable slowdown in case of -S first_element_of_path. (Unfortunately I cannot write such tricky pactests in python).

This is a not-to-commit patch NOTE: -Se is temporarily removed, because now resolvedeps doesn't have spkg param

What is really bad about this patch besides breaking -Se? Do you see a clean way of reimplementing it? Well, the way you didn't like earlier: http://projects.archlinux.org/git/?p=pacman.git;a=commit;h=b0c064d59b8786a1e...
