      Hello,

      I have read in the past that during a major update google puts all his ressources in the update and it seems  that they don't update search results anymore. Has someone noticed that too ? How long does it take for an update to be rolled out fully and have everything get back to normal ?

      Thank you,

        Hi seoanalytics,

        Could you please reply with the articles or comments where its said that?

        Actually, it happens completely the opposite, when an algorithm update happens we see big movement in rankings.
        They've said that they deploy several updates each week, but most of them are minor.
        Here that recent official tweet: https://twitter.com/searchliaison/status/1194365017073700864

        Hope it helps.
        Best luck
