You're probably right. At least I got to spend some quality time understanding 
the base code. :)

It appears that port-rdeps is now blazingly fast. Must be the base functions 
for dependency calculation that it's using got overhauled in 1.9 -- no doubt 
due to your tireless efforts! Thanks.

non-graph parts, and work on some improvements there.
