[opensuse-factory] Updating and memory..
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, The time it takes for an upgrade to install, is definitely dependable on the present Ram-memory. I installed an extra GB Ram, (befrore I had 512) and noticed that Ram consumption during upgrading, on a running system, is 732MB. (total usage) Saying that 512 MB of Ram, is too less. Updating took now, and yesterday, only some 30 secs, compared with 12 minutes with 512, it is obvious. Needless to say that connection speed also does its part. - -- Have a nice day, M9. Now, is the only time that exists.

Hi,

What kind of upgrade ? Can you be more specific ? Whats the size of your rpm database (ls -lh /var/lib/rpm) ? rpm tends to read all its database into memory, apply changes, and write it back out.
