For me, it took much shorter -- < 7 mins. It pays to be a later comer to the download

Wait, why does Lightroom say my software is up to date? I recently got the software and am not sure if I need to manually update this.

Somehow I just don't trust Adobe that everything will be fine if I decide to revert back.

By default, the Lightroom 4.2 release candidate for Windows will remove or overwrite your existing Lightroom 4 installation. If you wish to return to Lightroom 4 after installing Lightroom 4.2, simply reinstall Lightroom 4 from your original download after uninstalling Lightroom 4.2 using the Windows add/remove program utility.

I think for me it is better. I was almost to the point where it was unuseable.

Is tethering speed better? The last version of LR4 was a lot slower than Canon's DPP
