Btw, do you have any measures of the performance improvements of using
the locale archive is in general? It seems a like many other distros
chose not to use it.
As far as I know, they use it, but they build it in the equivalent of %post,
using the tool upstream glibc provides for that, and with only the languages
selected by the user. Fedora ships (at least it did before this Change) a
prebuilt locale-archive with everything.
