I wrote a <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://gitlab.labs.nic.cz/knot/deckard/blob/augeas_wip/pydnstest/deckard.aug">lens</a>[2] which works fine but on longer config files such as <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://gitlab.labs.nic.cz/knot/deckard/blob/augeas_wip/sets/resolver/iter_badraw.rpl">this one</a>[3] the match operation on /scenario/step nodes takes about 3 ms per call on my machine using both augtool and the python binding. This sums up to over 10 s for the whole file which too slow for our purposes. We have no idea what is the cause of this slowness. Are Augeas matches always so slow on "shallow and wide" trees? Thanks in advance for any help.
