Subject: [exim-dev] parsing costs of acl config
This came up in the context of Axel Rau's facility for database-logging
but is a more general problem.

Currently the config-reader skips over the ACL section when "not
receiving a message". I'm not sure what sub-processes this covers
but assume it's for the routers. For the ${acl } expansion to work
obviously the ACL config section must be parsed, in the context of
the expansion.

Does anyone know if the saving of parse time is significant?
I could put in a lazy evaluation if needed, or merely remove
the current "skip".
