The sys time increase is probably due to the increased disk activity I'm seeing during processing. Remember that I'm serving the repository from, and installing a client image to, the same drive. That is most likely due to the current temporary file approach I'm using for filelist. As for the user time increase. I have no answer for that at the moment. I would have to do more profiling to give a better answer to that question, and I think I want to try to find a better solution for filelist first.
