Re: [Printing-architecture] IN 10 MINUTES: OP US/Europe - Tuesday 16 August 2011

[Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmail.com>]

Thank you. Using pyppd-compressed PPD archives the listing of the PPD 
files take well less than a second on my computer and extracting the 
mentioned PPD file takes the same order of magnitude of time as SQLite.

For most CUPS users the pyppd solution is the best due to the speed. The 
SQLite solution has its place for the Debian users who use LPRng as the 
print spooler or for sys admins who often need to do changes on the 
Foomatic database and also quick access for setting up printers.
