How about 2x-3x faster for depsolving and 1/3rd as much memory used? Is
that better? If so, it's already done in rawhide.
Of course there's a bit of chicken & egg problem here. Users won't notice
the speed/memusage improvements during the big update from F8 to F9 (if
doing a live in-place upgrade) because that will be done using the F8
version of YUM. One of the interesting features of the RHN client was
that the first thing it did was look to see if there was an update of
itself, apply that and then re-exec itself to do the rest of the upgrade.
So the bulk of work for any package upgrade was always done with latest
update client.
I usually try to update rpm and yum specifically before any other large
update - mostly from painful past experiences where things did not go
well when they updated themselves or their libraries in the wrong order.
It would be nice if they were smart enough to do this automatically.
