First i do not understand why the local cache does not not have an
indicator for the repository url (it should find out that source is
just the same). I do not even understand what the purpose of this
cache is when an explicit "--remote" is added.
Second why does it want to update any kind of data when i just want to
retrieve a remote spec.
Sorry i think something is terrible broken here.
In terms of performance rubygems sucks huge at the moment.
With more then 3000 gems and 13000 versions we need a lot of
improvements.
The current metadata update system is a victim of RubyGems success.
Please see trunk for work in progress towards an improved metadata
update system. It is not yet wired in, however.
