Short answer is yes. If you installed a large number of packages an
upgrade may actually take longer than a new install. Do a Google
search for "upgrading Fedora Core 6 to Fedora 7" and see for yourself
if it is worth the trouble.
Upgrading has always worked perfectly well for me,
and so has clean installation.
I don't understand why it matters how long it takes.
You don't have to sit there staring at the computer.
Watch a movie. Read a book.
As far as I am concerned, upgrading uses far fewer brain cells,
as I don't have to try to remember how to install
all the services I am running.
