   * This release improves performance and manageability by splitting up package dependencies in a much more granular way.  Affected packages include `beagle`, `evince`, and `NetworkManager`.  For more information on these and other related changes, refer to [/Docs/Beats/PackageNotes].
  
-  * In this release, `yum` performance is extensively improved, using a new implementation of the repository metadata parser in C and more intelligent mirror management infrastructure. Pirut package manager as well as Pup updater is also faster as a result of the Yum speed improvements. 
+  * In this release, the performance of `yum`, '''Pirut''', and '''Pup''' has been significantly improved.
  
   * A new background service caches and increases the performance of network filesystems such as AFS and NFS. This service is part of the ongoing [http://lwn.net/Articles/100321/ CacheFS development] by Red Hat.
