There is one query/index fix in 1.7.1 but it doesn't affect upgrade.
I've not upgraded a wc as large as yours but I have just upgraded a 5GB
working copy on my desktop machine (3 years old, not hugely powerful).
It took about 45 minutes and used about 30 minutes of CPU. There wasn't
any noticeable slowdown as the update proceeded.
I see that you are using Fibre Channel storage, perhaps there is an
SQLite issue there? What sort of filesystem are you using?
