Hi,
I'm just in process of a bit analyzing the Zen Process...
Some comments / questions on the database:
- The Table catalogs contains a field 'checksum', which parse-repodata
is comparing on. But on my respective DB, this field is empty, with
exception to @system
As far as I understood parse-repodata, it would skip the whole parser
in case the checksum were identical. (probably imrpoving the 'wakeup
speed'?) could we store a checksum found in repomd.xml in here?
On wakeup, the repo is downloaded and compared.. so by downloading
repomd.xml (which is always very small) and comparing the hash to i.e.
the has stored for primary.xml[.gz] found in repomd.xml, could improve a
bit here.
Comments?
Am I completely off or could this be a direction? I would also be
willing to help coding on this product. With whom should I get in touch
for this? (I don't just want to implement a patch on 'good luck'. It
should be discussed first)
