[Spacewalk-list] Entire Packages are downloading over the Client side over 800MB for OEL5 Latest Repo [SpaceWalk2.5]

[Malla Reddy Madupu]

Hi All
Yes, I have removed/ deleted all the packages with the OEL5x_latest and re synchronized back with the 11937 packages. Now, it's lill better but however it's same 1.6 GB of sql lite file generating over the client side. is there a way to control not to generate such a huge files every time client connected to the spacewalk server?
Best RegardsMalla

So, I see something very similar.
I synced 11942 packages couple of days ago and I see Spacewalk serving:

# ll /var/cache/rhn/repodata/ol5-latest/ -h
total 268M
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root  60M Aug  9 02:56 filelists.xml.gz
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 187M Aug  9 02:56 other.xml.gz
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root  21M Aug  9 02:56 primary.xml.gz
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1.3K Aug  9 02:56 repomd.xml
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 616K Aug  9 02:56 updateinfo.xml.gz
