The majority of the updates are not duplicates.  There has been very 
very few Legacy updates that are duplicates.  When they are infact 
duplicate (usually happens when they were duplicate before Legacy got 
there) they will be made the same file.  The majority of the 
hardlinking was done on Red Hat updates, not Legacy updates.  Only the 
kernel and a couple other updates were hardlinked.
