Slow Starting Of Nagios 2.0b6

[Eli Stair]

I've noticed that expanding wildcards drastically increases the time it 
takes to validate the config before re{load|start}ing.  I've created 
population scripts that make _very_ large config files fully expanding 
all the otherwise wildcard-able host/hostgroup/service/dependency names 
because of this.

If you haven't already, you may consider evaluating that.
