Thanks for your thanks, however without doubt David is the one who delivered 
the performance improvements, and without his support, duchain would have 
remained a research tool and not something we can actually use today.

DUChain is the reason why I can't wait for this project to release and receive 
recognition of how advanced and comprehensive the system is.  It's also the 
thing driving me to keep working on kdevelop.

So, thanks David.

Cheers,
Hamish.

PS. I think I now see what david is talking about with the remaining smart 
range issues, so when I get some more time I'll look into that too.
