Having a big single table might be a performance win compared to several shorter tables that you would often need to join.
Yes - I kept this in mind but wanted t hear your opinion about this.
Also, during import, for each package, you would need to compare if the already stored description matches the one being inserted.
DDTP stores MD5 hashes to solve this.
Btw, the following packages have different descriptions or long descriptions on different arches: default-jdk default-jre default-jre-headless gedit-plugins libxenomai1 nvidia-kernel-2.6.26-1-amd64 openjdk-6-jre openjdk-6-jre-headless qvwm (only alpha different from others, apparently)
