[issue34] rpm-md use is VERY SLOW

[Jon at Labix Tracker]

New submission from Jon <jnelson-smartpm at jamponi.net>:

I use SuSE 9.3 and 10.0.  smart is working just peachy with the apt backends.
However, I tried to add an rpm-md backend and 'update' never completed. I gave
it over 30 minutes. This is what I ran (followed by smart --shell then 'update'):

smart channel --add suse-rpm-md-base type=rpm-md name="SuSE 10.0-OSS yum" baseurl=X

where X is one of:
http://suse.mirrors.tds.net/pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS/inst-source/suse/ 
http://suse.inode.at/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS/inst-source/suse/
