Using OCLP 1.2.0, I took the more tried and tested path of Ventura upgrade.
I ran the Ventura installation over existing Catalina , all apps and data retained. No restore from TimeMachine.
Initial boot up post upgrade patch, signing in it took about 5~10 mins for system to stabiilize.
Email rebuild gone well.
1.5TB Photos index regenerated in under 15 mins.
Just one slight hiccup. The OCLP app supposed to move automatically into /Library/App support/Dortana folder ended up with 0kb to the file size. It's corrupted. I had to use another computer to download and transfer it over using a thumbdrive. Downloading it using the just-upgraded iMac somehow was crawling at 65kb/sec using Safari or Firefox. Hence the use of another Mac to download and transfer over.
Time Machine restarted and did it's first Ventura back up, completed in about 2 hours.
Thanks for all the help here.
Will observe the iMac for a while before moving to Sonoma.
