In creation of an anchor database, it has taken time rather than creation of 
tag files.
I think that creation of an anchor database takes time too much.
And I want to know what is a bottleneck.
The form of tag files influences the performance of global -nx.
As the last mail showed, the difference was seldom seen.
Which does time require, the writing to an anchor database, and execution of 
PERL?
