217% as long, using “real” times, to refresh SLE update repo, than to refresh all other repos combined, here in SE USA, on an old single thread 64bit PC. Since UpdateSLE is normally last to refresh, it makes the zypper lr process routinely seem to be hung. Is this behavior global? Correctable? Bug report worthy? Better suited to some other forum?
