RPM build speed is also much better that SUSE updater!
Bravo for yum-presto team!
What's rpm build speed? If you mean the applydeltarpm time, it's
because SUSE uses bzip2 for payload compression, which is much
slower than gzip.
That probably does explain the speed difference. Looks like we are
trading in disk space for better performance. Why was bzip2 compression
chosen in SUSE? How much disk space do you save on disk by using bzip2?
