I don't think comparison to CVS or Subversion update is relevant, because in a DVCS a slow pull does not obstruct work (unless you've seen a feature on emacs-devel that you're just dying to have). You just don't bother with it, do your work, commit, pull upstream when you have time or the network comes back up etc, and merge. YMMV, but I think that is the prevailing opinion.
