There are several issues here: - Different servers will transmit repository metadata at different speeds and you need to factor these out when trying to find bottleneck in the client-side code. - dnf handles more stuff than apt. For instance, perl packages have virtual provides in the form of 'perl($MODULE)' for every perl module in the package. This allows users to install a given module without caring what package it is in. Last I checked, apt had no equivalent.
