Reconfirmed on rawhide 20080422. From what I could gather from the code it's
urlgrabber (and python ftplib under it) that's the real culprit, but it's
anaconda that's using it in a way that makes performance hurt badly in the "get
headers for all rpms" phase :) . I'd probably make it use pycurl underneath, but
that's another can of worms and AFAIK the yum/urlgrabber people aren't fond of
the idea at all.
