I'm sorry for your experience.
you seem to have misunderstood something though.
The 1.56 updater is not faster or slower than any of our previous updaters.
The update system is unchanged.
The grey goo fence error is occurring since a long time. Some are affected far more than others. Once an avatar is affected, it seems hard get rid of the problem. Slowing things down does not help a lot.
Yes I agree, nothing helps to stop this problem. I can now update about three boxes at a time before the grey goo fence takes over and stops me.
As a little test, i just updated 100 boxes, without any problem.
Well I can bring you 100 boxes and watch my grey goo problem start almost immediately. From what you are saying, my account has been targeted my Linden Labs as a griefer - because I am using your software. This is not fantasy - the Lindens have said they might adjust grey goo parameters for accounts as another anti-griefing measure. Since these accounts are usually throwaway - such a policy would be ineffective- and they would also affect legit accounts like mine.
The speed with which the updater updates cats is well below the documented limits after which SL's "Grey Goo Fence" protection should kick in.
Several years ago, when the issue started after an SL server update, a bug report was filled with Linden Lab. They were provided with a sample, got together with an affected breeder and me, acknowledged the problem, but have since not fixed it.
At this point, i don't see much options. With the new dock retrieval functionality in version 1.56, it may be possible to update your cats in an alternative way in future by just clicking all of them on the webpage, transferring them within the same sim to a higher version dock. Since there have never been reports about docks failing to rez, it may be possible to build an alternative updater using this system, but it's no guarantee, as there are also "grey goo fence" limits for rezzing.
Hmmm, and then I get more limits put on me? A better solution - I will just transfer my 1000 boxes to you, and you can update them, then transfer them back. 
We also highly recommend keeping boxes in the online cattery, it's more safe than keeping them in world and they don't need to be updated.
I have many boxes in the cattery, including the most valuable. But this does not help In world shops, or my In World cattery, where I also keep boxes about to be unpacked.

Breedables have always been an inworld spatial game to me - location is important. The dock only moves cats back to the dock from the cattery, not to the prior location on my land. And only one at a time. When I used the cattery for storage and breeding, it increased the time I had to spend breeding and sorting by several hours a day. And it was absolutely no fun to breed cats in a database.
I can understand why you have made this basically a web hobby, where your customers can play without owning land or spending any money in SL at all, other than kibble and milk. Some of us still prefer to be 3D avatars in a virtual world, and enjoy our kittycats and run the business in world, as in the "old" days.
