You know I think that one of the best features of Fedora 11 it’s Presto. Today I’ve discovered one little side effect of this awesome YUM module.
I was updating my system after a week out of town when I realized my CPU was at 100% of use and 70⁰C. I switched on the cooler dock of the laptop and… what’s using my CPU? Because I’m doing nothing… and here you are:
$ top -n 1 | grep apply
3116 root 30 10 8000 6532 492 R 90.5 0.6 1:31.38 applydeltarpm
Yes, seems that the bandwidth save isn’t free; it has some computing cost. It’s OK as long as you remember to switch on your laptop’s dock when you’re in Spain and it’s about 30⁰C in your town.
