There is a problem with yum 3.0.2, it take very long time to initialize
updates, so yum-updated will take much longer to run and block other
invocations of yum.
This is fixed upstream in yum 3.0.3, just released.
I'm sure there soon will be a new release for FC6.
That makes sense and explains the variable results I was seeing.
