I have a normal Austrian broadband connection, and it is still much faster
to just download the full RPMs than to use delta RPMs.
And parallelization (as others in the thread have suggested) will not help
at all on the single-core machine I'm typing this on.
Thus, I disabled delta RPMs long ago and agree that they should be off by
default.
