In recent versions of Ubuntu, this script should no take so much time because we're using mlocate, a variant that only updates files that were modified. Working period should range from 5 seconds to one minute. Is your computer recent? Are you sure the real culprit is updatedb? You can check this with 'top' in a terminal (the first process is the most active one).
