No it is a clean 7.0 install, the machine was running linux before a 
disk failure.
It was running Gentoo Linux, so I was used to update sources from the 
network and then compile everything.
Kernel and userland are 7.0, I was updating pkgsrc

Compared to 7.0 I am running now. Sorry, I inferred from your question 
that the version might be critical.

I can't compare to previous NetBSD versions on this machine. I remember 
how it was running Linux about 2 years ago and I do run NetBSD on 
similarly powered SPARC machines.

I did run another cvs update and it took again around 10 hours. Maybe 
the first time there were lots of changes after a long time, the second 
run was just the day after.
