Comment:
This is done:

<dun...@community.haskell.org>
* Add a source package index cache to speed up reading
e.g. about 3x faster for cabal info pkgname
}}}
Some timings using a list of all packages from Hackage (~4000 packages):
* with cabal-install-0.10.2: more than 8 minutes (didn't wait for it to
finish)
* with cabal-install-0.13.3: 2 minutes 44 seconds
* with cabal-install-0.13.3 and modular solver: 49 seconds
Of course, this package list results in an error.
