At that size, is RPM actually a good fit for the data inside it? Building
it is going to be slow and so is going to be installing it and upgrading
it. Downloads from mirrors are going to be problematic going from the
complaints we get from users on various large rpms taking too long to
download or timing out or breaking something else.

I realize RPM is the cardboard box we are comfortable using for a lot of
things, but this seems like trying to use it for a shipping container
across the ocean.
