Yast package manager takes too long to start

Hi,

Most of the time I use Yast software manager to install an application or update something, and every time it takes toooo long to fire up, 5~6 mins or more.
i think it tries to search for all of the new and updated packages.

Is there any way to lessen its loading time?

thanks

How many repos do you have active???
