Justifications for twice a day:
- to get motd updated & get upgrade popups on the desktop.
- to have a better chance of having critical security fixes downloaded, before the next upgrade window.
- in case of intermittent network losses, having two download attempts is better than one.
- machines that are off overnight (office workers), with twice daily download have a better chance of downloading updates during office hours; instead of effectively always on boot.
