    Could it be .... your implementation?

    The package itself is actually quite useful, when not done over-the-top.
    It caused lag at river for a few weeks until we tracked it down to a huge
    amount of fileread() calls.  We re-implemented those calls with better
    code and voila!  Problem solved.
