I am a bit confused. I thought dnf, especially libdnf already got rid of python in v4.
I personally would appreciate any improvement, I use fedora as my daily driver and I am happy with it, but compared to pacman dnf is painfully slow.
I don't have the insight into package managers as I once did, but as just a user it's appreciated they do work on this.

I do hope though that the solver could be faster. The developers of (php) composer copied it as their solver and it used to take up to 2GB of memory. Right now they are down to under 100MB for most transactions. I dont know if that is features that already exist in libsolv (if that is still being used) or not, but using less memory and time there would be a big win.

Fedora 39 Looks To Use DNF5 By Default For Better Performance & Improved User Experience
Phoronix: Fedora 39 Looks To Use DNF5 By Default For Better Performance & Improved User Experience
With Fedora 39 next spring it will likely replace DNF, libdnf, and dnf-automatic with the new DNF5 packaging tool and libdnf5 support library. DNF5 should improve the user experience and deliver better performance for dealing with software management on Fedora Linux...
