This is probably easier to test if you're seeing problems with dpkg performance after installation, although I do plan to hack it into an installation environment after I get back from UDS and do some comparisons. Please report before-and-after timings if you can, preferably with a cold cache.

If this makes a significant improvement, I'll get it into Ubuntu 10.04.1.
