I used Pup a couple of times and abandoned it. I kept yum-updatesd and
puplet for several months, but when I noticed that yum-updatesd used 30 MB
of memory ( which I needed) all the time, I shut them down. When I had
them running, I would update whenever puplet popped up. Now I update about
once a day. So, "1) Quicker".
