top-posting?
Had no idea what that was at first.
You prefer that retorts follow quotes.
No problem.

I agree.
However, I am not complaining about speed.
I am eagerly awaiting more sources to transition from
older libtool to newer libtool.
I wish that would go faster.
Okay, maybe I am complaining about speed. :)

Nearly the entire point of my previous emails
was to specify that although dash is a faster shell for some uses
if libtool was made to run under dash
then libtool might not run as fast.
I wanted to spare the eager dash fans
from allocating the time and effort to port libtool to dash
if the outcome would become incommensurate with expectations.
I entered the conversation, merely because I did some various speed tests
with dash to discover where dash might be a better choice than bash.
If I did not have that data then I would not have replied.
Consequently, my message is not so much about libtool
as it is about what dash might be good for.
dash is a good choice for running small quick scripts.
However, I do not want to fuel an unrelated thread
about dash on the libtool email list.
But someone had a good thought to wonder and express
the idea about whether libtool performance
could be improved by using dash as an interpreter.
Thanks for libtool and making it better.
