Gyus,

I'm sorry don't remember name I discussed apt-get update/upgrade speed (in general) between beta1 and beta2.
hopefully he reads this.

if you require faster apt-get install/upgrade process you can disable dpkg-preconfigure command to be started after EACH one .deb file being unpacked. it's perl script costing MUCH memory and MUCH cpu cycles.

it was enabled in Beta1 so this isn't the cause for the huge slowness you feel, but I suppose this one step can be traded for speed easily. we can look at the difference then later.

Oh and please say hallo again to remind me again, thanks.
