[Python-Dev] import too slow on NFS based systems

Hi,
when lib/python/site-packages/ is accessed via NFS, open/stat/access is very
expensive/slow. 

A simple solution is to use an in memory directory search/hash, so I was
wondering if this has been concidered in the past, if not, and I come
with a working solution for Unix (at least Linux/Freebsd) will it be 
concidered.

thanks,
	danny
