We have an open rfe for related things - we're hoping to combine two
rfe's into one:

1. have the pkg/metadata downloads run in a different process in a
different context  - for selinux
2. have each repo have its own downloader process which can handle
however many pkgs/metadata at a time that downloader process can cope
with.

If someone wants to work on that come by #yum
