[Yum] Accelerating yum

Hi,

I used yum to update some packages to rawhide, and was impressed by the
amount of time it took to resolve dependencies. I know nothing about
python, but I thought hey, I'm going to profile that app and make it
blazingly fast. So I spent a few hours finding how to profile python and
did it.

The results of the profiling are available at
http://nomis80.org/profile.dat. I thought that this may be useful data for
people already doing optimization work.

Can anyone conclude anything from that data? What's your take on it?
