Likewise with quick "benchmarks" like this (which amounts to > the same thing, IMO). You are being needlessly defensive. HWhy not just explain how solv update and yum update is that different? It is obvious why people would want to compare. If you think, there is a lack of proper comparison, do it yourself and post the results or explain the guidelines and ask people to run the tests and post the results. Either way, performance of yum is a frequently raised point and it would be useful to get some good comparisons.
