Even on my C2 "yum search yummemoryimprovesinf9" causes significant
memory pressure[1]. Sugar/Glucose/Sweetness becomes unresponsive,
though oom-killer doesn't get involved. I'm surprised that it's even
feasible to run yum on a B4 with sugar running. I've been using
compcache[2,3] to help with this pressure.

1. As in, "free" in vmstat goes down to 0, from 40. Yeah, this is
imprecise. "cache" is still fine at 80. joyride-1998. That's not
downloading any updates, no activities running.
