The compile of all the files was done very quickly ~10 - 15 seconds.

Even with the single installf -f it took forever
between 1 and 3 seconds per file.  that does not sound like much,
but when you start talking about 2000 or 3000 files it adds up quickly.
I am not sure if that is a problem with my machine? large contents file, or
some other issue? or if it is normal for installf to be that slow.  I would
rather do it this way, which does not show that kind of response time.
I think this makes for a Better user experience.

installed on a fairly quiet v490 running solaris 10 for my benchmark.
