Not to mention, if you have more than one machine, you need to download the updates on each individually (unless ofc I'm missing something).

With Debian, I can set up a local package proxy and fetch things only once, but I don't think there's anything like that for OpenSolaris yet. A general proxy like Squid would probably work, but compared to the ease of apt-cacher or approx it's a little trickier to deal with.
