Cool for your last reply with a plan for mitigating the issue.

Even if the phase is drastically speed up, it would be probably still
too slow when using the option ’-D’ remove only one <item>; or just
some.

I have not checked the code, maybe I should start by that. ;-) Is it not
possible to simply skip the deleting phase when the option ’-D’ is used?


Cheers,
simon
