Never.
Incredible.
1 or 2 hours later again, and you would have succeded.
Why the hell are you complaining about a renewing process which is
running _THIS_ fast?
It must be something else what is boring you, so please explain or shut
up.
Interrupting the update process at night because you need to sleep is
generally a good thing. After wakeup, the chance to fulfill is 100%.
Viele Grüße

If an update aborts due to recent factory changes, you can just restart.
Maybe you need that a second and a third time, but usually an update needs
only a limited time, so if you continue you will succeed.
This may work for you with your kind of network, but not with mine. An update
attempt may take as "little" as four hours. If I trigger it at 2 am, to try
catch a period of developers resting, and I go to bed, chances are it will not
finish. A restart on the morning does not work, because the repo has changed,
so I have to wait till the next night.

I may have to try for a week before I finally get it done.
Never.
So I don't.
