So lets benchmark it and provide you real data.My machine have classic magnetic disk, however in SW RAID1.

Download lasted 3mins 20secs. Then installation started and since beginning "transaction started" till the end lasted exactly 53 minutes. No specific package is blocking the process, dnf was chewing packages one by one in steady pace. Veryfing phase lasted ~4 minutes, so it means approximately 3 second per package, which is what I am seeing on screen. And this is nothing exceptional. I see similar times across all machines I maintain. When I'm updating box of my mother (old EeeBox, updating aprox every 3 months) then the time is usually 3 hours (however ~1 hour is just download phase).More than anything, doesn't this just shows that we simply push way too many updates in Fedora?
no
* first: the above is Rawhide/Alpha
* second: the reason i run Fedora and not Debian/RHEL is fast updates
* third: nobody should apply updates every 3 weeks
but that above is Alpha and so no "production" machine
