I can see some difference is that yum would try download all the packages at first and then install them in local system while zypper would do an iteration of retrieve/install one by one that should be the root cause.
Hard to tell. Could also be a different mirror. You should create a copy of the repository an a local disk and update with that repository to rule out network issues.
But users would work with network repo mostly. Anyway, seems start a single call to curl to download all packages at first should be a better idea than making 57 calls to curl. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help@opensuse.org
