  Well, there wasn't _one_ issue, but many little things :
   - The hdlists files are now cached in a simple text file, so second and
     next loads of hdlists are much faster.
   - The installed packages are now detected before the installable one.
     Since rpmdrake has to know if an installable package is installed or not,
     it can now do this directly in memory. Before this was done using the
     rpmlib which is *very* slow.
   - the packages lists were always kept sorted. It isn't the case anymore.
     They are built unsorted and sorted afterward.
   - update the UI only one package out of 20.
   - maybe other things I don't remember.
