	Ok, so someone else is seeing it... 

	Its not "performance" I'm worried about though. For the laptop, its
just sitting and watching it go through 915 files for an update to a small
program that doesn't rely on anything but perl.

	For my Soekris, it IS bothersome. CF cards have a limited life, and
all those rewrites decrease it.

	So I guess its the new way it does it then.
