> New links are normalized twice by the fetcher: 
> First in DOMContentUtils.getOutlinks, where the constructor 
> Outlink(url.toString(), linkText.toString().trim(), conf)  normalizes the URL.
> The second time is in ParseOutputFormat.write().
> For some URLs (e.g. those repeated on a page) a given URL may be normalized a 
> number of times, but it is always normalized at least twice.
> For those of us with expensive normalizations, this is probably burning some 
> CPU. 
> I'd gladly fix this, but I'm not yet familiar enough with the code to know if 
> there are some hidden assumptions which rely on this behavior.
> [A related note is that URLs are normalized *before* filtering; this is 
> causing a lot of extra normalization as well. In general, filters may not be 
> safe to run before normalization, but there is likely a class of them which 
> are (filtering out .gif/.jpg etc). Perhaps the notion of a "pre-normalizer 
> filter" would be a useful one?]
