Estimation of package installation time

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I just submitted
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=105326

which contains a simple patch to try to improve the estimate for package
installation time.  My test seems to show that it is a good improvement
(though still by no means perfect).  I'm interested in any comments
others might have.  The basic idea is that instead of just using the
install size to estimate time:
   finishTime = totalSize/sizeCompleted * elapsedTime

we can also use the number of packages
   finishTime2 = numTotal/numComplete * elapsedTime

and combine the two to get an estimate to show the user:
   realGuestimate = sqrt(finishTime * finishTime2)
