	them into memory. This brings memory use down to (more or less) O(1). For instance, on my test case, the maximum resident size of download-using-manifests while filling the DB went from 142 MiB to 11 MiB.
2011-04-11	* Lock the database during updates.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+8

2011-04-11	* Create $manifestDir if it doesn't exist.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+3

2011-04-10	* Cache the manifests in /nix/var/nix/manifests in a SQLite database.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+138
	This significantly speeds up the download-using-manifests substituter, especially if manifests are very large. For instance, one "nix-build -A geeqie" operation that updated four packages using binary patches went from 18.5s to 1.6s. It also significantly reduces memory use. The cache is kept in /nix/var/nix/manifests/cache.sqlite. It's updated automatically when manifests are added to or removed from /nix/var/nix/manifests. It might be interesting to have nix-pull store manifests directly in the DB, rather than storing them as separate flat files, but then we would need a command line interface to delete manifests from the DB.
2011-04-06	* Remove the localPaths feature in manifests since it's no longer used	Eelco Dolstra	1	-16/+1
	and redundant anyway.
2010-12-05	* Use CamelCase for the Perl modules.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+211
