So I renamed /mnt/sysconfig/sbin/ldconfig away and replaced with a copy of /bin/true. The installation speed went up a lot, I'd say it's 10 times faster now.
I suppose that running ldconfig continously is not useful, it could be done just once at the end of the upgrade.
Not quite I think. Other (later-run) scripts might use those libraries so ldconfig has to be be run before them so they can work. Perhaps those calls could be clustered into one, but I don't know whether this can be done without changes to RPM.
