Just that. When that plugin is loaded, yum will look for and use drpms. 

from 'yum info yum-presto'

Description : Yum-presto is a plugin for yum that looks for deltarpms rather than rpms
            : whenever they are available.  This has the potential of saving a lot of
            : bandwidth when downloading updates.
            : 
            : A Deltarpm is the difference between two rpms.  If you already have foo-1.0
            : installed and foo-1.1 is available, yum-presto will download the deltarpm
            : for foo-1.0 => 1.1 rather than the full foo-1.1 rpm, and then build the full
            : foo-1.1 package from your installed foo-1.0 and the downloaded deltarpm.
