-  When NIS+ is used instead of NIS the benefit from using nscd is much bigger.
   Keep in mind that non-namelookup related operations dominate above times.
   It was just a common complain that using NIS+ unpacking the kernel is
-  horribly slow.  When using nscd unpacking is now even faster than using
-  NIS.
