createrepo slowness - reconsidering yum indexes in pld th support

[Arkadiusz Miskiewicz]

Hello,

Can createrepo index update process can be made faster? It takes about *1 
hour* to update Th indexes (where poldek does the same thing in less that 1 
minute for pndir format).

Currently it's called as:
        
os.system('%s.stat/bin/createrepo --cache %s/tmp/createrepo %s%s/%s/RPMS' %
                (ftp_dir,home,ftp_dir,tree,arch))

using ep09 packages (pld ac).
