On a good day, the built-in updater takes about 20 minutes to download the updated LM-Studio. Today, I quit after an hour and a half and downloaded it with a browser from lmstudio.ai in 45 seconds.
When I started the update, I was also downloading a large file and that was consuming most of my bandwidth. I am guessing that the updater is trying to be smart and capping itself at whatever bandwidth it calculates it has at the time you press the "download & install" button instead of just getting the file and letting the network do what it does best.
Before giving up, I took a look in Task Manager and the 5 LM-Studio threads were consuming 0% network at a time when it should be consuming ~100% since everything else I was doing had completed.
