Ansible seems like a cool project... thanks for stopping by here. One question, though. 0.4 seconds seems like a very long time to query one user/group, though. You should be able to query thousans of UIDs a second, minimum... unless you're using LDAP and you have a slow network or something. You could write a simple C program to query a bunch of UIDs and I bet it wouldn't even take a millisecond to run. So where is the overhead here for ansible? I apologize if this is a dumb question... I am not very familiar with the architecture. |

We're using GNU user tools in many cases for correctness and efficiency of not reinventing the wheel so you might wait a little more for them.
We're open to tuning but it's really not been a problem.
It's still statistical noise in the end, and, yeah, like we said, we've got more important things to work on first. It would be nice if we had time for everything, but this just doesn't rate in the grand scheme of things right now, still.
Someday, perhaps! Meanwhile, try things out, I don't think this will matter in practice for most folks :)
