Oh, that sounds bad.  I only ever use pretty small collections of TeX
Live packages, so I never noticed.

In the past we used to create a union directory and generated a
configuration file to only search for packages in that single directory
instead of searching a large number of directories.  I wonder if we
could do something like that.
