Hi,
This phase took more than two hours ... um, I guess we really
need to speed up yum/rpm/underlying filesystem, if a clean F17
install on the same machine took less than 20 minutes :-/ ...
This is definitely due to disk slownes, especially laptops have
usually 5400rpm drives.
eh?
how could you blame hardware when both things I'm comparing were *on the same mchine with the same disk*?
On SSD it took me 20 minutes to upgrade >2500 packages.
which only proves my point, unless you have a way too slooooooow SSD
with transfer speeds 100 MB/s or much more and almost zero access times, I'd expect less than five minutes
Not sure what kind of install you mean, maybe live CD may take
such a short time?
network with local mirror ... which makes the comparison even more sad, as I counted the time to upgrade *without* getting the packages while the installation included the download time :-/
