http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1191208 Bug ID: 1191208 Summary: packagekit should use multiple threads to speed up "applydeltarpm" Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 15.3 Hardware: All OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME Assignee: gnome-bugs@suse.de Reporter: Ulrich.Windl@rz.uni-regensburg.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Created attachment 852862 --> http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/attachment.cgi?id=852862&action=edit Screenshot with top while packagekit is running Trying to run "yast online_update" after boot, I had to wait a rather long time until package kit did no longer block yast. While waiting I was running top to see that pckagekit downloads updates one by one (as it seems) and runs applydeltarpm (which is a CPU hog). For a fast net, the time applydeltarpm consumes is much longer than the download times. Considering I have 8 threads, available using multiple appldeltarpm in parallel might reduce the overall waiting time. I'm aware that the applydeltrpm may also use a lot of RAM, depending on the details. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
