* Update *

ntlmaps is really every bit as sluggish as Toufeeq led me to believe,
routinely taking up to 85% of the CPU. I doesn't appear deterministic,
though: right now it's barely noticable using less then 10% of the CPU
power.

Toufeeq, could you say anything more on the topic of nutch in-built
NTLM authentication support?

t.n.a.
