Upgrade duration for 3.0.0 to 3.0.5 upgrade on large board?

[Darth Cow]

This forum has over 2 million posts and corresponding number of threads, members, etc. About how long can I expect an upgrade to take, just to run through the update files, excluding anything else like database backup or template fixes? The server is a dual xeon with plenty of memory.

Thanks.

I got over 3 million posts on mine and the upgrade only took a few minutes... real quick... so far so good with 3.0.5

I went from 3.0.3 --> 3.0.5

backed up the forums directory and the sql files beforehand... then ran through the upgrade procedure.

If you dont have any hacks on your board, then it should be very quick and easy. For us 'hacked' people it can get painful.

Okay, thanks .
