If you have modest hardware resources it may take a while to get the job done.

Please give us a break! Stop with being coy, embarrassed or shy. Give
us the details!

Are you using XEN, VMware (server | workstation | client), or other
virtualization software?

What version?

What FC6 kernel, e.g. "uname -a" are you running?

What hardware resources do you have cpu (lowly celeron, power-hungery
xenon, etc.) and memory (total system, client allocation)?

What other processes do you have running on the host OS?
