I'm curious - how long did the whole process and up taking?

You were right. Thanks. After "emerge system" was done I checked and emerge couldn't find anything else to do. After that, however, I pointed /etc/make.profile to the new 2004.3 release profile (what that means is described here for those who want to know: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-upgrading.xml), and then it came up with a few packages to update and 4 to remove. Yes, I know this isn't strictly necessary, but since it was a clean install anyway, I thought I'd do it anyway and see what happened. Now I feel really up-to-date. :-)
