That's the way Smart is supposed to run: it only commits when the complete set of packages for the requested transaction are available.
I had no doubt of that. My point was that if Smart was smart if would know or find out which files it wants are the largest and start download of those early, so that those bringing up the tail of the download process were average size or smaller. That would minimize the delay from connecting to a slow server that permits higher net throughput when several files are downloading at once. I had this happen before on Ubuntu, where OpenOffice.org was started late and was last to finish by a considerable margin. -- "The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped."
