It's not a problem with name resolution or anything like that. I was watching a netstat -tc in another window and when yum froze, the connection to the mirror would show a SYN_SENT status. After I hit Ctl-C, the yum process doesn't terminate...it continues to download more headers/rpms. I've got a cramp now from hitting Ctl-C so many times to get this yum update to complete. It's almost done now as everything is downloaded and being installed. Maybe that will fix it, but I've never had this problem before.
