This is a powerful modern server that costs about $40k so its quite fast, and windows updates take a hour to run on a system that has just been freshly built and nothing else installed except the Hyper-V role and features required for that role and had basic config like networking and virtual networking and the usual regional settings and so on. In this latest example i am scratching my head about I have a server with 2 Physical XEON CPU's and 48 cores total and 768GB of ram.
For as long as i can remember i have always wondered why Windows Updates on all versions are so slow.īut for this purpose lets focus on Server 2019 and Windows 10 latest builds.
