With 50000 test accounts in master.passwd, it takes something like 10
minutes to rebuild the .db files, completely preventing anybody else from
doing anything password related.

Is there anything that can be done to speed this up?  Changing the
password isn't too bad, only about 30 seconds, but adding takes forever.
