Yeah, I really don't like the idea of making repoman even slower by default.
Also, I'm not sure why exp profiles are to be treated as more stable
than dev profiles. I was always under the impression that the reverse
was true, though I cannot recall where that assumption was formed.
I would like to see this formally documented somewhere before we start
changing repoman defaults.
