Re: lets talk about dependancies again...

is sudo getting in the way of your speeds...my tests from my cable modem
were much faster than your tests...(less than 2 seconds for the
provides  and about 19 seconds for the actually test update) but I took
the sudo out of the command chain and was native root.  Maybe sudo is
adding some overhead here?

Maybe I'll cron the test and do a few hundred timings and get stats. 
But my single point stat seems to indicate you have a problem that I
don't...and I have to be on a slower connection that you since its a
crappy cable modem
