> Yeah I don't know why people are saying that speed doesn't matter. I use Homebrew and it is slow

Because how often are you running it where it's not anything but a opportunity to take a little breather in a day? And I do mean little, the speedups being touted here are seconds.

I have the same response to the obsession with boot times, how often are you booting your machine where it is actually impacting anything? How often are you installing packages?

Do you have the same time revulsion for going to the bathroom? Or getting a glass of water? or basically everything in life that isn't instantaneous?
