Enough of it is performance sensitive that Fil-C is not an option.

Fil-C is useful for the long tail of C/C++ that no one will bother to rewrite and is still usable if slow.

How is apt performance sensitive?

  • Apt has been painfully slow since I started using Debian last millennium, but I suspect it's not because it uses a lot of CPU, or it would be snappy by now.
