normally about 37 minutes, yeah. 4-5 minutes for the reboot and > 30 for
the microcode update. It's never clear from the software release notes if
the code needs microcode updates either. You can get around the problem by
preloading with the archive download /upgrade-ucode command.

A couple caveats to be aware of with this. If you stage code ahead of
time, the 3560X's at least will not provide PoE to new devices until
they're rebooted. So don't reboot any phones/cameras/APs on that switch
until you've completed the switch reboot. It does significantly
decrease the amount of time it takes to complete the reboot if you do
upgrade it ahead of time. The other caveat if you have any personnel
located near these switches, while you're doing the microcode upgrade,
it spins the fans to max. Unless your server rooms are normally at
110F+ temps, this means they're WAY louder than usual and tend to get
attention from the IT folks who hear them and get concerned by it.
