yum vs rpm.

I am going to assume here, that yum is the tool of choice for Fedora Core.

If that assumption is correct, we should discourage people from using 
apt-get/synaptic, seeing as how this is a sure fire way of seeing those 
`rpm lock-up' complaints.

Perhaps an FAQ or something explaining how to make yum go faster ( -C ) 
is in order. The #1 complaint about yum is the fact that it updates all 
the time.

Remove that, and it's maybe ... 5 seconds slower than apt? And it's 
designed for the task.

I send this to the test-list, as this will probably be of concern to the 
people putting out the next test.
