I've been using packaged base for quite some time, cross-buildin= g on FreeBSD/amd64. Every time I upgrade FreeBSD via "pkg upgrade" it seem= s to me that it does not take an inordinately long time. It takes longer t= han packaged base on a regular FreeBSD/amd64 server with spinning disk, but= not an excessive amount of time. It's certainly on the order of minutes, = not hours. Indeed, migrating to pkg base is the presumed solution for the "freebsd-update would be too slow on SD card root" issue. Perhaps you wouldn't mind writing up the steps you're using to cross-build and install updates?
