--- Comment #8 from Jonathan Wakely <zi...@kayari.org> ---
The problem is that Discover is unbearably slow to query updates, and it
doesn't cache them so has to keep re-fetching them.

When Discover shows a systray alert to tell me there are updates and I click
the popup, it takes about 30 seconds for it to show me the available updates.
Despite the fact that it JUST finished checking for updates and told me there
are available updates. Why check again immediately, when it only checked a few
seconds ago? Why isn't there a cache with an expiration age? Is it the firmware
and/or flatpak updates that are slow, as dnf doesn't check for those? Is there
not a cache for those updates?

Checking using dnf or pkcon is much faster. So much faster that while waiting
for Discover to finish fetching updates I can open konsole, run sudo dnf, enter
my password, **and download and install the updates** before Discover even
finishes checking for them.
