Actualy hdlist are pretty much unused these days.
urpmi (and thus the installer) doesn't use them any longer for quite a few
years already (at least since 2007 or 2008).
At that time, we only kept those big babies for:
- users adding media from older distro for live upgrading but:
1) all mdv distros since 4 years handle that
2) we don't support upgrading from anything <2010
- some test tools (don't remember which one) that nobody use still parse them
That's why network BW usage by urpmi is small for checking media (checking
if MD5SUM still matches then download small synthesis if needed)
That doesn't change the amount of RAM and the CPU time needed to parse
& compute updates but thats' another story...
We could try to disable hdlists from cauldron mirrors and see who's crying
(I guess nobody will)
