To some extent, things are going to be a little slower due to waiting
for X roundtrips... you can throttle the progress bar to reduce that
effect but then you get the alternate effect of the display not updating
as aggressively :-/  It's a bit of a lose, lose situation.

I fixed this a few weeks ago and forgot to build it and then built it
earlier today for other fixes.

If you can provide more info on what yum-updatesd is doing then, I'd
love to see it -- I'm regularly running all of yum, pirut and pup with
yum-updatesd still running on my box and haven't hit a stale lock once.
