as bibisected by mjfrancis
I confirm that reverting 5a646f04cc40fb13f39b16ab452237e5cf324684
on master allow to load that file (without it it takes minutes -- I
killed it after 5 minutes-cpu, so I have no idea how long it would

Are you comming to the Lo-conf ? if so come equiped with source code
I'm curious to see if that can be ran regularly in-tdf-house...

yep, that is what I had in mind....
something that make it easy for a dev to get, not only the calculated

we can even imagine coupling this to bibisect, to narrow down regression
