Comment 2 Tomas Lestach 2010-11-18 11:17:58 UTC 
Sebastian, thank you for your path!

I'll ask our QA guys to make some repomd generation measurements, if there're some improvements visible.

Comment 14 Clifford Perry 2011-03-11 05:20:46 UTC 
Taken from private comment #5, making this bug public. 

== Test system  ==
SW12 x86_64 epel-rhel5-i386
  Create and copy 1000 of 10MB files took 343 seconds
  Build 1000 packages per 10MB took 4763 seconds
  Repodata generation took 199.5 seconds (average from 10 (8) measurements,
    highest and lowest dropped)

SWnightly x86_64 epel-rhel5-i386
  Create and copy 1000 of 10MB files took 348 seconds
  Build 1000 packages per 10MB took 4731 seconds
  Repodata generation took 63 (average from 10 (8) measurements, highest
    and lowest dropped)

I have used EPEL RHEL5 i386 channel with 4878 rpms.

This shows improvement for 68%.

Please let me know if this is a type of result which was expected.
Comment 15 Pavel Novotny 2011-03-11 16:23:10 UTC 
Verified.

Test results:
Used repository containing ~3300 packages.

Old packages (spacewalk-java-1.2.39-35.1.el5sat): 
  Repodata generation: avg. 109s
New packages (spacewalk-java-1.2.39-38.el5sat): 
  Repodata generation: avg. 74s

It makes repodata generation ~47% faster.
