These seem like serious overkill for a small number of servers,
especially ones where you don't run a lot of local or 3rd party apps
and thus should never have a reason to need anything but moderately
frequent 'yum -y update' runs. What kind of time and resources does
it take to understand, set up, and manage one of these beasts?
