40% smaller Windows updates? I think they are missing the point. It’s not the size of the download, it’s the time it takes for Windows to work out its package dependency treee, it’s ridiculous SxS system that was only ever a massive kluge, and the incredible number of forced reboots.
If it takes me no more than five minutes to run an apt update && apt upgrade —-yes with no reboots, how on earth is it that Microsoft is still so behind the eight ball? Note that apt upgrades everything in minutes, whilst Windows does not.
