Vista Pro
I saw no improvement when I tried to install this month's September 2015 Patch Tuesday updates for Vista. I ran a manual Windows Update on 10-Sep-2015 and got stuck at Checking for updates... for 40 min before WU reported that 1 recommended and 14 important updates were available for download. The entire update process, including downloads and installs, took just over one hour.
Here's what the CPU consumption looked like for my 10-Sep-2015 Windows Update, with:
------------
32-bit Vista Home Premium SP2 * Firefox 40.0.3 * NIS 2014 v. 21.7.0.11
HP Pavilion dv6835ca, Intel Core2Duo T5550 @ 1.83 GHz, 3 GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce 8400M GS
Here's what the CPU consumption looked like for my 10-Sep-2015 Windows Update, with:
- "Checking for updates..." running for 40 min between the 73 and 33 min marks (with svchost.exe saturating one of my cores and constantly consuming 50% of CPU between 60 and 33 min marks)
- Downloads, installs and monthly Malicious Software Removal scan between 33 and 13 min marks
- Re-boot to finish installation (dark grey band) at 8 min mark
