Twink needs professional mentor 😙😌😈

Completed a process for a position about 2 weeks ago and haven’t heard back. They indicated it would be a lengthy turnaround given they are setting up a new fund and building the team top down. Would it be rude to ask for a timing/process update? Driver of me wanting to push is I have moved far along in another process and don’t think I’ll have much time to decide. The slower moving opportunity is more attractive to me but there would likely be one more round there to complete.
