This is becoming too ridiculous. My Xeon 16 core system was heavily impacted by the patches, I had to disable them in order to get it working with satisfactory performance. Until there is malware that is exclusively causing issues, ill rely on my anti-executables, and common sense for now, for not getting malware or 0 day in the first place, that could exploit. I notice some software struggles to start up or perform certain tasks. The GUI of software's sometimes take longer or are sluggish as well with patches, and this system uses an SSD. That doesn't mean the risks are there by any means or that patches should or shouldn't be used. Everyone needs to evaluate their own environment separately.
I am starting to think that we are crippling our own hardware's capabilities for paranoia. Sometimes too much security can be as bad as too little. The best security stops the malware from ever getting on a machine in the first place. If it can't be launched in the first place it can't exploit.
Again, that isn't to say to not patch. Everyone's environment and needs are different. Personally I would patch my business, but not my personal gaming machine.
