[Help-stow] speed and memory usage on stow -D

[Mark Logan]

Is anything being done to make stow a little faster/more efficient when
doing a stow -D?

The entire reason I use stow is that it makes it easy to remove and/or
upgrade packages, but this is really insane.  By the time it was
finished it was up to about 700M usage.  

I know this is because its doing really clever stuff about folding links,
but still...

  PID USER     PRI  NI  SIZE  RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM   TIME COMMAND
13420 root      19   0  445M 445M   992 R    99.1 50.6   4:59 stow
 4808 root       9   0  1528 1492  1104 S     0.3  0.1   0:28 sshd
13444 mlogan    10   0   944  944   728 R     0.3  0.1   0:00 top
   
Nonetheless, stow rules, but I was just wondering if anyone else finds
this bothersome.
