I thought the index you were talking about was a client-side cache of the package information on the server. If it is just an index of metadata of installed packages, then I agree that 40MB/700 = 4MB/70 = ~50KB per package is nothing to worry about. Where is the UI spec for pkg(5)? Is the UI frozen? - Brian _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
