use deltarpms. I think it is actually a bug that we don't produce them
for factory distribution - I don't know why actually.

deltarpms are bad for factory users as they require metadata updates
_after_ the factory tree is synced out. It would take _even_ longer to get
to a new factory snapshot being online.

What about having the delta RPMs in a different repository, e.g.
Factory-delta?
