I've been installing VS2015 for over an hour and a half, and it's only 1/3 of the way done...

Are you doing the off-line install, or the web installer?
The latter sucks big time; even worse when it hits an error will often roll the whole thing back.

Installing from the iso - I abhor web installers.

try unpacking the iso to a directory,
otherwise each time it needs a new file it starts at the top of the iso image again.

The larger the hard drive, the more it can download, the longer it takes.
Try installing on a smaller hard drive.

Just a note of experience:
Once upon a time I was installing MS Expressions - it took forever. I then found, on line, that if you minimize the window it went quickly. Sure enough . . .
Option II: MS's apps believe MS's time-remaining, or at the least, are intimately related to it. The is best summed up by the quote on the gates of hell as per Dante's Inferno[^].

When I installed it, it only took about 25 minutes.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

3-1/2 hours installing from ISO (mounted with Virtual Clone Drive).

Do you have an SSD? On a fairly average spec'd laptop, it finished installing in under 20 mins for me.

I used the web installer.

So ... have you kept any?
Specifically, @MacSpudster
You don't appear to have kept yours: The Lounge[^]

Absolutely! My resolution a couple of years back was to not make any New Year Resolutions, and I've stuck with it.
Cheers,

It doesn't matter how often or hard you fall on your arse, eventually you'll roll over and land on your feet.

Yep. I adopted that approach many years ago and it still hasn't let me down.
Slogans aren't solutions.
|
|
|
|
|
Nor I.
And the best bit is that it takes a positive effort to not keep it.

My resolution for 2016 was to be a failure.
Then in 2016 I got a good pay raise, wrote a book, scored a new book contract, got my name on the cover of a book I reviewed, released my own library on npm and NuGet, maybe win a prize for my latest article and paid off a lot on my house.
Needless to say my resolution failed miserably.
I'm such a failure

If I were you, I'd make the same resolution again!

Ah, but @OriginalGriff, that was for 2015.
For, the following was in small type: *Calendar Year 2015... HA! 
You caught on once I clued ya in...The Lounge[^]

But then you got a whole extra year, and you still didn't get there!
Pull your finger out, mate!

Ah, but I didn't commit to doing anything in 2016.
I'll discern appropriate actions when 2017 comes around...
