Hi m4m,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. We understand you have some questions about your iCloud backup taking a while. We are happy to provide some information to help resolve this. You mentioned your backup can take awhile to complete, start with the steps to resolve that here:
1. In iOS or iPadOS, go to Settings > Wi-Fi. Check that you're connected to Wi-Fi.
2. Check your upload speed.
3. Leave your device connected to power and Wi-Fi for 24 hours. If your backup still isn't done, archive important data then contact Apple Support.
See more about those steps, and what to do when your backup doesn't complete because of error here: If you can't back up to iCloud - Apple Support
Thanks.
