Use puts() instead of no-op printf() where applicable
This replaces several printf calls of the following styles: printf("%s", ...); printf("some fixed string"); printf("x"); We can use either fputs() or putchar() here to do the same thing without incurring the overhead of the printf format parser. The biggest gain here comes when we are calling the print function in a loop repeatedly; notably when printing local package files. $ /usr/bin/time ./pacman-before -Ql | md5sum 0.25user 0.04system 0:00.30elapsed 98%CPU $ /usr/bin/time ./pacman-after -Ql | md5sum 0.17user 0.06system 0:00.25elapsed 94%CPU $ /usr/bin/time ./pacman-before -Qlq | md5sum 0.20user 0.05system 0:00.26elapsed 98%CPU $ /usr/bin/time ./pacman-after -Qlq | md5sum 0.15user 0.05system 0:00.23elapsed 93%CPU So '-Ql' shows a 17% improvement while '-Qlq' shows a 13% improvement on 382456 total files.
