But I did not expect it to slow down *ten times*.

And besides, TRACE_LEVEL=5 is set in the distro config file - with no
documentation in it on what levels mean what. And finally, one does need
those debug messages when one wants to develop a bit.

Agreed. So I have another idea here - support both :)

TRACE_LEVEL in the distro config file should be set to 2, with a clear
explanation that increasing it is *not* recommended.

The config should also include optional LogFile and LogTraceLevel
entries for every utility. This can create a log file witha different
trace level (default 5, bit the lines should be commented out by
default).
