This is a pretty common misconception, specifying creates doesn't
actually create anything, all it does is check for the existence of
that file.  What you want to do a minimum would be "/usr/bin/yum -y
update > /tmp/update" or "/usr/bin/yum -y update && touch /tmp/update"
 or something that will actually create /tmp/update.

How long does it take to install that package on the command line?
Puppet isn't going to run yum any faster than you can, so if that
package takes 10mins to download and install, puppet is going to take
10mins to download and install..

Ah, manifests are parsed and order of them really doesn't matter for
resources.  If you want to install these things in a particular order,
you need to use require or before.
