Another comment about 1pass-parsing (Re: [PATCH] Add 2-pass mode to gtags)

How about having a little time before releasing 1pass-parsing?
I would like to think about it.

Though the 1pass-parsing is a certainly wonderful improvement,
it requires considerable disk space for a temporary file.
In the case of linux-2.6.21.3, it requires about 59M Bytes, and
additionally it use a file not visible.

If someone tags a huge project at a server machine then it might
bring /tmp directory overflow, and it is not visible. The system
administrator might judge that he will reboot the system.

Though the efficiency improvement of 1pass-parsing is large enough,
2pass-parsing doesn't have this danger. Since improvement of
efficiency alone is not necessarily all, let's have a time to
think about the method.
