Background updates finally landed to Nightly. With this we will have 0 annoyance while updating / applying update https://bugzilla.moz...g.cgi?id=307181

Background updates are still disabled because of a few issues though.

I went to the about window and it downloaded an update then it said "restart to install" so I clicked that and firefox's window closed and nothing happened, I then checked task manager and firefox had shot up to using 13.5GB RAM out of 16GB so my computer was sitting at 15.8GB, this was a fresh profile with no addons. I had to kill firefox.exe, this kinda surprised me! That was some huge memory leak.

I just did the update
I got "Update & Restart" in about window , clicked it , some busy mouse cursor , and Firefox window fired up , no progressbar saying Installing update !

What you got was probably the 3rd re spin.
