I just upgraded an F30 VM to F32. It is a pretty vanilla Workstation install. The VM's disks are actually hosted on a NAS over nfs and are traditional spinning HW. I upgraded via "dnf system-upgrade". The number of packages upgraded was 1656. The download phase took 9 minutes 10 seconds. The upgrade phase took a few ticks over 25 minutes. I would think that checking dnf system-upgrade log and seeing if one area in particular was responsible for the excessive time may be helpful. Another recent upgrade of an old notebook from F31->F32, Core2 Duo CPU, with 2626 packages upgraded took 58 minutes. That notebook does have an SSD. -- The key to getting good answers is to ask good questions. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
