There's no facts or details, to quote "The reported speed

There's a lot of I/O heavy processes in the compose, like createrepo,
that don't run any rpm tracsactions what so ever.
Paul was referring to image creation here. We should be able to get a
fairly significant (at least one order of magnitude) speed-up on
creating any image that runs an RPM installation transaction. I'm not
sure how much that will save in the *whole* compose process, but as
it's an identified spot where we know how to optimize it, we should do
so.
