[about prelink being quick]
That is not my experience, but I use an old version of Fedora.
Has prelink been made smarter? It churns through all my discs
for about 15 to 30 mins each time.
Yes, several. E.g. /etc/cron.daily/prelink won't do anything up to 7 days
since last prelinking, if rpm database has not been modified.
prelink.cache now includes even negative hits - files that aren't
prelinkable, so all it needs to do in quick mode is stat all the files
in the directories that are given in prelink.conf and not in blacklisted
and compare the timestamps, ino_t/dev_t's of the files with those stored
in the cache. Only what has been modified and whatever depends on the
modified libraries is prelinked.
Those all sound like good changes. It's still not something I
consider worth doing, but those are indeed improvements.

I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
