For me, upgrading Django for a series-A sized startup (e.g. 25KLOC) takes maybe 2 - 4 hours on average, assuming there is good integration test coverage. What parts of the upgrade process are you finding take a long time?

I feel like the last Django release that was at all complicated to upgrade to was maybe 1.9, in terms of getting the test cases to run properly in parallel if they hadn't been properly isolated. And even that was more of a Python3-like situation, where it really only exposed things that people had done incorrectly previously.
