Gem-fast, let your gem installation swing! see this blog: 为 gem install 按上翅膀 -- gem-fast

Known Issue:

  1. Sometimes We need to expire local cache, i.e: latest_specs.4.8.gz
  2. When user cancel an installation, local cache is hafe-downloaded, this will break the next installation
  3. check curl installation before install gem-fast.gem
    I need add a pre_install_book to Gem, but Rubygems have an bug here
    see: Gem.pre_install-does-not-working-as-it-named

TODO:

  • Reacting the Caching strategy
1. change cache folder from gem/cache to somewhere else(so that we do not need sudo as least )  
2. support mtime cacheing
