Yes, number of transactions matters a lot. However upgrade is a special
case that runs in a single SQLite transaction as this makes most
upgrades faster. Maybe for really large upgrades the huge transaction
is a problem? My 100,000 node working copy upgrades in 45 minutes.

Upgrade does a number of read queries as well as writes, but all within
the same transaction.
