I noticed Pike takes a very long time starting on the Pi.
It seems to have to do with module loading:
pi@raspberrypi:~$ time pike -e 'write("test\n");' test
real 0m2.774s user 0m1.450s sys 0m0.050s
2.7s is slow, but not devastating.
pi@raspberrypi:~$ time pike -e 'import Protocols.HTTP; write("test\n");' /usr/local/pike/8.0.10/lib/modules/SSL.pmod/Connection.pike.o:-: Warning: Decode failed: Decode error: Got unfinished program <116> after decode: program(/usr/local/pike/8.0.10/lib/modules/SSL.pmod/Session.pike) test
real 0m24.972s user 0m12.760s sys 0m0.270s
25s is a bit tardy. The error message might be a clue?
Loading Calendar takes 14 seconds.
This is repeat performance, so it's probably not a slow disk (SDCard). Anything I can do to make this more tolerable/debug the problem?
