I added some comments.

The problem is that the md5sums of the packages are recalculated on each run.
That's taking >90% of the time.

#100 now has a patch that saves the md5sums along with timestamp and filesize
to a separate file.   So on re-runs the md5sum are reused unless the timestamp
or the file size changed.
