I may be wrong, but I noticed in a previous upgrade that in that
phase the machine is disk-limited as it is executing a great
quantity of sync() functions, related to the rpm database.

I would really like a simple way to turn the sync() stuff off
when doing an upgrade.
I know I know, it is dangerous and "libeatmydata" etc., but
an upgrade is already considered a risk by me, so I always backup
before upgrading; at that point, I would kick the sync() stuff
out of the way very happily.

Best regards.
