Comment #2 on issue 870 by [email protected]: Performance improvement when using tags

We enabled the syslog, and that helped. Here are some output lines:

We started pybot using:
pybot --exclude DIALOG --exclude ADEXP --pythonpath ../.. ../OLDI/

In that directory the ouput files airac0-log.html and others are present as well, and appearantly also parsed for test cases. As these files can be rather large, this takes some time.

When starting using a wildcard match:
pybot --exclude DIALOG --exclude ADEXP --pythonpath ../.. ../OLDI/*.txt
it is OK, pybot starts within 5 seconds instead of 5 minutes.

Perhaps mentioning this is in the users guide would be useful.

Thanks for helping us,
