At least give us an update!
Sounds good in theory, but sometimes, when you're working on a problem, breaking off every hour just to say "still working on it, no change from last update" can be a distraction that would actually slow things down. I sort of doubt they're just sitting around staring at a screen waiting for something to finish. Personally, I think that posting an update when something actually changes from the last comment is a reasonable approach.
