Hi Simon,

Thanks for taking the time to benchmark this, this is very insightful!

I agree and this is a very good point in my opinion.
While I don't expect nor do I need "guix pull" to complete immediately,
this is not true of "guix search".

As Simon suggested, maybe we can wrap a benchmark script together, post
it on the mailing list and ask member to report their results.  Maybe
a few dozen results would give us a better idea of the numbers we are
dealing with.

Cheers!
