Just recently, when app updates appear in the Creative Cloud app, if I click to update one of these apps, I'm unable to use the Internet for anything else on this PC while the app updates.
All browsers when loading web pages become excruciatingly unresponsive and most after some delay display "web page took too long to respond" errors.
If I cancel an update, or once it's finished, the web speed appears to go back to normal. The speed is only noticeable on this PC during the updates. Other devices on the network work as usual.
Is it possible to throttle the amount of bandwidth used during the update process so that I'm still able to continue doing other online tasks?
I've gone into Preferences > Creative Cloud > Files and changed the download and upload speeds, but this has no effect (as I believe this is a sync speed for files / assets).

i'm not sure it's a bandwidth issue. there may be some other problem.
but if you want to test that, 3 Free Tools to Restrict or Limit Internet Download and Upload Transfer Speeds • Raymond.CC

I am having the same issue at our office. We have a business internet line which supports simultaneous users but as soon as I start an install for Adobe CC versions through the cloud app, the internet comes to a crawl.

Hi there. I manage a small team of three people; we all have Adobe Cloud. When Adobe CC updates itself, it takes up so much download bandwidth. Our tech support people have provide a report suggesting Adobe CC updates takes up 68% of our overall bandwidth. Amazingly troublesome. Did anyone else get any answers? I'm currently trying to get through to Adobe on the phone (25 minutes on hold so far). Paul in Sydney

What QoS or other mechanisms do you have to limit and equalize bandwidth? It doesn't do anything unusual, just connects and downloads.

Hi there,
I have the same problem (surfing(100Mbs) goes down to the knees if i just download/update 1-2 clients) and i have a lot done in QOS table but its not the right place to post the whole profile.
Could you please help me with qos. What can i prioritise? Port(it is standart https port, is it not? so here i can do nothing), IP/IP-range of the download/update server?) Some informations would bring me some balance/control to the trafic.

I have the exact same problem. When I try and do app updates and when Lightroom CC uploads a bunch of photographs my other internet apps stop all together. My internet speed is 3-4 MHz. Has anyone found a solution to this problem?

MHz is not a unit of data transfer speed. Did you mean Mbs (Mega bits per second)?

Thank-you for the correction. My connection speed is 3-4 Mbps not MHz as stated.
Now we know the problem. Any solutions?

Well the solution would be to get a speedier line as 3-4Mps is not very fast for today's standards.
I would suggest to do the updates at night.

There's no solution within Adobe CC unless Adobe decides to start following good design principles. I mean, even Windows 10 lets you limit how much bandwidth updates can use, and there is no real reason to not make it available. I mean, I'm on a high-speed fiber connection and before installing limiters I had to turn auto-updates off just so that CC won't kill my connection when updating, and when I did update, I used my fall-over connection (200Mbps LTE) for the updates to keep my main connection alive for other use.
But anyway, one could use additional tools to limit bandwidth usage for selected programs. On windows, something like Netlimiter (not free, costs around $30 USD) or a free alternative like TMeter Free (it's harder to use, how to geek has a good tutorial on setting it up, but should work just fine). No idea for Mac users though, but I believe there are similar solutions available, maybe even built in.

The arrogance and contempt of companies and individuals who are fortunate enough to live somewhere with fast internet, when planning things on the assumption the rest of the world will just "get faster internet", is breathtaking.

One answer says "spend you cheap maggot!" and the other answer is philosophical...
If uploading photos and psd files is bandwidth hogging then why not allow for update at a certain time in creative cloud. I was thinking of letting it update while I went for a walk today. Alas, I forgot.
