Subject: Re: [PATCH v8 3/5] perf config: Reimplement perf_config() using
perf_config_set__iter()

And this is not always a bad thing, think about being in 'mutt' and
adding an entry to ~/.mail_aliases, then going to compose a message,
would be good that the just added entry to ~/.mail_aliases be considered
when adding recipients to your messages, right?
In the same fashion, 'perf report', 'perf annotate', 'perf top' are long
running utilities that have operations that could get changes to config
files without having to restart them, i.e. do annotation changes in your
~/.perfconfig and then see them reflected next time you hit 'A´ to
annotate a function in 'perf top' or 'perf report'.
So, I think that if tools want ammortize the cost of reading config
files, they should create an instance of the relevant object
(perf_config_set?) use it and then delete it, but not keep one around
for a long time.
