I just uninstalled a couple of older kernels with FC2 test1 and they really are much slower [root@paris root]# time rpm -e kernel-2.6.3-2.1.246 [2]+ Done up2date real 1m59.040s user 0m11.307s sys 0m2.385s [root@paris root]# time rpm -e kernel-2.6.3-2.1.253 real 0m39.944s user 0m8.205s sys 0m1.786s You comparison is flawed. kernel-2.6.x is lots bigger, with many more files, than kernel-2.4.x. It's the package, not rpm, at fault. |

I particulary noticed when uninstalling a old kernel with rpm -e times in the order of several minutes. I did the same on a FC1 system and found uninstall times to be much faster [root@xeon root]# time rpm -e kernel-smp-2.4.22-1.2132.nptl real 0m7.205s user 0m0.490s sys 0m0.460s Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rpm-4.3-0.19 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.install or uninstall any package 2.long wait 3. Actual Results: rpm slow to complete transaction Expected Results: performance consistant with FC1 Additional info:
