Description MASA.H 2006-03-28 16:17:25 UTC 
When yum downloads updates from multi repository. Now, yum downloads only one
update at a time. But if yum can downloads some updates at a time, I think get
yum downloding faster.

Yum use not only one repository. And updates often exists not only one
repository. So yum can gets file A from repository B, and at the same time gets
file C from repository D. Different repository  often means diferrent server.

Acutually, APT ,which is a Package manager like yum, can downloads more files at
a time. Why yum can only one file at a time.

Downloading multiple packages at once makes the display impossible.  Patches
will be considered, but it's not something that is inherently interesting to
upstream development.
