Installation & Licensing

[#1]

I've had the opportunity to uninstall Revit 2013 on 8 different machines, different performance computers, in different companies. I'm yet to see uninstall times under an hour. In some cases its been longer than 90 minutes.

Does this seem to be standard? If so, why would it take double the time to uninstall compared to previous Revit versions and compared to any other Autodesk software... including the much larger Civil 3D?

I suppose I'm asking... is this expected "functionality"?  If so, I can learn to be patient. If not, then I'm curious to why it is occuring.

Revit 2012 (trial) has all 3 disciplines of Revit.  It is like installing 3 copies of Revit.
