Cataloged_times is simply a Python dictionary object. Other serialisation 
methods are
faster than pickle at handling simple data types like this. On my low powered 
atom Netbook 
this file takes 1.4 seconds to load. When I use the same data with the msgpack 
python module 
it takes only 0.1 seconds. Also the filesize is reduced from 3.1MB to 1.7MB.

This might not seem like a huge deal but on older/atom/arm based PC's all these 
little times add up.

My proposal is that the pickle serialisation in cataloged_times.py be replaced 
with the offerings
from the msgpack module.
