Hi Rahul
Upgradation is simple, about the time, it takes about how much time it takes for the backup.
Following are the steps which I used to follow


At the exsiting server:- 
    Disable indexing in the present system, stop and start stop, 
    Take backup of Alfresco installation DIR
    Take backup of DB

At the new server :- 
   Restore the DB
   Install the new alfresco installation (imp:-do not start the service) 
   copy the alf_dir of the old instance  directory to the new inststallation directory (Please copy only 2 directory named "contentstore"  and  "contentstore.deleted") (Do not copy other directory)
   start the new alfresco instance 
   You have now upgraded the instance without indexing  enable indexing at alfresc-global.properties 
  restart the service 
   You have a upgraded system with solr indexing enabled
