it computes the pool file names from file contents. If I'm not mistaken, this
involves reading and decompressing each complete file. It won't be fast in any
case. "Faster"? Maybe, maybe not. I wish I'd find some free time, because the
task is really not *that* difficult, it's just not something general purpose
software can handle well.

Regards,
Holger
