The 'yum' module is pretty slow for me. That might be an artifact from
running my play books against a VM, but running 'yum install a b c d e f'
is a lot faster than:
- name: Install PHP packages
yum: name={{item}} state=latest
with_items:
- php
- php-common
- php-xml
- php-mbstring
- php-imap
- php-pdo
- php-pgsql
- php-mcrypt
With one package, I could find a file that gets installed for that package,
look for it, and if that fails then do the install. But that's a lot
harder to do with a bunch of packages like above unless I want to duplicate
the task for each item. I can accept it taking several minutes when it
actually has to install those packages, but when they already exist, it
STILL takes several minutes, a lot longer than using the native yum command.
Is there anything that can be done to the module, either by me or as a
feature request / bug fix, that can let it see if the packages already
exist and move along?
