Windows update is using my entire 3mbps connection right at this moment.
I have a pcap, but it's from my side and in this case i don't have
access to the provider side.

Subject: [AFMUG] Microsoft Updates Thrashing Connections
It's Patch Tuesday, so I figured I'd pop in to remind people that have
issues with Microsoft Updates to get packet captures of the problems at
least one level upstream of whatever device is doing the rate limiting.
When you have them, let me know so we can coordinate with whichever CDN
and Microsoft to look into why it is happening.
We're specifically looking for times when there are dozens of TCP
connections open for the transfer or when the CDN is ignoring TCP norms
and sending more bits than the customer is limited to.
