Typography is the craft of endowing human language with a durable visual form, and thus with an independent existence. (...) Typography remains a source of true delight, true knowledge, true surprise.

Yum Presto rules!

By Steffen, on November 16, 2009

Fedora, Linux


Not only can it save enormous amounts of bandwidth:

Presto reduced the updates to 2.9 M from 74 M which is a 97% savings.

What I like about the presto deltarpms plugin for yum is, that it shifts the burden especially for large updates from a potentially scarce resource to a more plentiful one: from the network to the local CPU. Also, I find the bit of reporting that it comes with just exactly right.

Finishing rebuild of rpms, from deltarpms
<delta rebuild>                                              |  74 MB     00:56

Nice!
