That depends on how much stuff you update at once. Try updating 6000
packages (which I just did yesterday and will be doing again on
multiple systems after the mass rebuild) and you will notice some delay.
It can still be small compared to doing the actual updates, but when you
are trying to catch problems (that block lots of the updates) it can be
pain to have to wait before seeing what needs to be fixed.
