I made and then applied the deltaiso between 32-bit F9 final and F10 final. [andre@compaq-pc tmp]$ ls -l Fedora*iso new.iso -rw-rw-r-- 1 andre andre 3662573568 2009-04-21 18:17 Fedora-10-i386-DVD.iso-rw-rw-r-- 1 andre andre 1819893388 2009-04-21 19:03 Fedora-9_10-i386-DVD.diso
-rw-rw-r-- 1 andre andre 3580680192 2009-04-21 18:10 Fedora-9-i386-DVD.iso -rw-rw-r-- 1 andre andre 3662573568 2009-04-21 19:43 new.isoThe deltaiso is just under half the size of the full ISO. On my single-core 2.7 GHz AMD box with 4GB of RAM, applydeltaiso took just under 38 minutes (makedeltaiso took 40). My download speed is 3 Mbits/s, so even with a full speed download, it takes about 3 hours for the full ISO, so my reconstruction time is less than half of the saved download time. For someone on 768 Kbits/s, it's much better than that. I would definitely download the deltaiso if it was available.
> ~40 mins on a 2GHz Core 2 Duo, 2GB ram.Does applydeltaiso make use of multiple cores, or just one? I'm guessing just one. It probably doesn't need that much memory, either, since it only processes one package at a time and reads/writes to disk.
