Oke little update on my original post. I'm not complaining about speed! i did that before around F7 and then "proved" that i could do the same in a fraction of a second with mysql but that was without checks. The speed is fine for me as it is now.faster is better but this isn't a issue anymore. What i was saying here is that yum first needs to download/update it's local data to tell something that it could have easily done with rpm -q gimp. And that was also my question if the current behaviour of that is a bug or a feature. I also understand that this might be a rare case scenario so therefore might not even be useful to implement. Also please keep on the subject. Timings are very interesting (so let them come ^_^)! but CentOS doesn't have anything to do with this so don't start on that. 2008/4/2, Rahul Sundaram <sundaram@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>: > Les Mikesell wrote: > > > > > > The expectation of consistency is the only point I care about here.
