It is not always about speed. There are still plenty of places in the world where people are on limited data plans and to them using delta rpms makes a lot of sense. They can work with slow speeds but not with high data expenses. So i feel turning it on by default and having a setting to turn it off is still a sane choice. Just my 2 cents.

I have almost always seen it *increase* download times,
In my experience, while the download times may be (slightly) reduced, on a number of my (slower) systems, the rebuild of the rpm itself took longer then it would have taken to download the full rpm.
As with all else, your mileage WILL vary._______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
