I am running rawhide. When I do a dnf update, it goes at normal
speed, but the verify step takes a long time. I had an update of 789
MB, and it took ~ 30 minutes to verify. A 123 MB kernel install took
between 10 and 15 minutes to verify. During these verify
proceedings, dnf is writing constantly to the disk (seen with iotop).
No reads, all writes. That seems strange.
Is this expected behavior? Can anyone explain why dnf is doing all
those writes after the update has completed?
This is no longer happening. Waited several days to be sure, but gone.
