I have some services found being activated by default that should be
removed for the following reasons:

1. sendmail: starts way too slow,
Sendmail startup should only be slow if your dns is broken or you've removed the localhost entry from your hosts file. Either of those
needs to be fixed anyway.
the slow part is the aliases generation.
Oh, if only unix-like systems had a common tool to quickly determine if the source text file is newer than the dependent db...

Um, am I missing something here or is the answer simply:
make

Actually I'm not sure. If make is installed it is used intelligently for most of the db's, but in my admittedly not current fedora setup it looks like newaliases is run blindly on every startup. Is there some reason for that? If make is not installed it might cost you some time anyway.
