you are right, opensuseupdater takes a long time to get the list of updates when a lot of repositories are enabled. There are some related feature request for opensuseupdater: - Opensuseupdater shouldn't check for updates every time you login but on defined intervals - Opensuseupdater should wait until system load is low I will do my best to add these features to the next kde version of opensuseupdater.
