Documenting for the sake of completeness. One speed factor could be IO
performance on our $HOME. $HOME on the *s boxes is lofs mounted, $HOME
on the *x boxes is remotely mounted via NFS. Quoting Dago:

14:16 <@Dagobert> skayser: *s is all on the sparc server, the homes are lofs
14:16 <@Dagobert> on *x it is NFS mounted and sloooow

My 75 minute upgrade attempt above was on one of the *s boxes.
