roughly how long is the longest pause you experience?
Also, if there are any pauses, where do they occur?
I try really hard not to be sucked into paying attention to long installs, so I can't really answer your question.
I would compare preupgrade with other ways of installing Fedora.

I don't experience any long pauses with any other of the several methods
I have used (PXEboot, USBstick, hard disk install, etc).
All seem to keep me quite well informed about what is going on.
Is there some reason why preupgrade should be different?
Preupgrade is relatively new. I assume that it's on a learning curve.
