Google Updater Should be Friendlier about omaha HOT 2 OPEN

Further details:

My experience matches this users, and, when leaving the process unmolested for 
an extended period of time, it appears to complete and chrome reports it's been 
updated in the UI, leading me to believe even more strongly that this is, in 
fact, part of the Chrome update.

I wonder if this is perhaps some embedded interior installer launched from 
within the Google update proper? 

Note that my machine is quite slow (It's a legacy XP machine) and so I'm sure 
my problems are exacerbated by it's slow-ness. I have caught my windows 7 
behaving more slowly while updating chrome, but the effect is much less 
pronounced, and very short-lived.

Main problem from my perspective is that these updates are completely silent. I 
expect my computer to be less responsive when it's performing some software 
install/update, but when I don't even know about it (much less initiated or 
approved it) I just find my computer is struggling for no good reason.

Experienced this multiple times on Windows 7 with Chrome + Drive installed. Not 
sure if exacerbated by having many long-lived tabs open in Chrome, but 
sometimes the updates are very intensive on my system - i.e. sometimes to the 
point where I can only see GoogleUpdate.exe chewing up CPU in task manager, but 
the system is otherwise virtually unresponsive.
