The PSN update system is a nuisance.

Remembers PS3...Yeah it's a non-issue
It wasn't bad even then, not that it stopped some of the hosts on 1UP Yours bitd moaning about it because they only turned their PS3s on once every other month.

I am much more annoyed the system locks out around 30GB of storage for system updates when I don't believe I have ever seen one over a few GB's.
Also "a few minutes" for some is an hour or more for others.

I thought this thread was a legitimate complaint until OP outlined his issues.
LOL
....If you don't play the system for months, then why does 5 whole minutes to update bother you so much for a system you don't even use? (Considering the time period from when the last update was released which is usually 6 or more weeks out..a whole like 2.5 or more months)
Like the PlayStation is doing exactly what it's supposed to do here...it seems like you are the problem and this is straight up a personal problem. I have never had this issue. Keep it on auto update and on rest mode and your problem will literally be solved. I tend to like to know when the update is available and pick and choose when to download rather than auto update since some updates can brick or mess up something that worked fine before the previous update. So pick a poison

Put it in rest mode and use you your PlayStation a little more often.

I feel you OP. Most of the time it's fine, sometimes it's brutal.
It's easy. I turn my PS4 off and play my switch instead
