Other than the sheer amount of updates I get them really fast and have a 99%+ success rate this way too. Just redid 2 machines 3 days ago, been casually updating both and I believe my laptop is done for now, lol. I don't worry about updates anyways.

instaled Boinc in Linux on both my PCs and I cannot for the life of me remember the Linux comand to show my Current CPU speed and not the stock speed.
my SR2 should be at 3.4Ghz but I cannot tell grrr

I use offline Wsus


WSUS Offline Update - Update Microsoft Windows and Office without an Internet connection you can burn it to did or Blu-ray in iso format or write it to USB drive and it runs smooth as butter and as fast as your storage will allow, plus you just run the update builder once a month and it only add what is released. Works like a charm if you have multiple machines.

Gives me this for threads 0-7:

model name : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 950 @ 3.07GHz
