How long does a Drupal update take?

Many variables can influence the time it takes to Upgrade a Drupal site depending on the amount and type of content on your current site, which version of Drupal you're currently using and updating to, and what the update pertains to. Some are simple, taking only a few hours, whereas others can take days due to properly planning, migrating, and executing the update.
