Christmas comes early thanks to Composer image

Composer received a massive speed boost yesterday. One of the lead developers, Jordi Boggiano, posted on Twitter about the improvement:

Between some optimizations from @naderman and a tip by @schmittjoh about gc_disable, Composer now runs in ~half the time it did yesterday!

To get the latest all you need to do is run:

composer self-update

All the PHP developers rejoiced and posted gifs :)
