I contacted them on the French phone support …. http://s5.parature.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=15026
But I'am waiting for them to recall me with a french technical person.

That's surprising because time length for the process is not proportionnal !!
2 months ago, we've done the migration (there was ~40 000 doc) and on a virtual machine (VMware) and it took a short night …. why with 70 000 docs, it takes 8 times more ???
The time length is not proportional to the number of documents in the repository and I was really surprise !
Finally we rolled back to the current version on the production….the migration having been considered as a failure.

Well I just tested on another virtual machine yesterday evening.
The time length was 3Hours to apply the upgrade.
My customer has really a problem with its production server….those final customer…..they would better ask to maintain there network by a computer science engineering company, they need expert !

So the problem doesn't come from the patch.
