Title:
  apt-add-repository can take machine down

Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  If apt-add-repository has to work with a file with 20000 entries, even
  when all but 20 are commented out, it will bring a machine slowly to a
  halt.

  IO writes of >100MB/s will happen, so basically saturating all
  available bandwidth of a rotating disk.

  This will bring a machine to a stand still due to extreme load.
