Sorry for the late reply. I was off the mailing list for one and a
half month. Therefore I include a full quote.

I am writing my PhD thesis these days and therefore I do not have
time for this blogging thing until November or January :-(

Performance is no issue at all on *my* side. I plan to re-generate
the whole blog every night using a cron job.

But I do understand your concern when you need something which is
updaten instantly. (Not my personal requirement.)

Yes. I plan to scan each (or a defined subset) of my Org-mode files.

Sorry.

But anyhow: whatever I hack, it will be on github [1] and everybody
is free to fork and add a better performing real-time update
mechanism. I also have a cool name for my project - be curious *g*
