Comment (by ydekproductions):

 What about completely restructuring the update process to use Ajax.

 The actual update page will be the status like it is now, but it'll be
 making a request to an Ajax script instead with a little spinner for the
 status.

 Then it'd be real simple to execute multiple updates.  The update process
 could then also be more streamlined and broken up into arbitrary tasks,
 like:  Download zip file is one request, then unzipping would be another
 request.  Just more tasks would be thrown into the queue and potentially
 work in multiple streams.

 I think doing this would help bypass some interference on servers with max
 script execution time as well as memory usage.
