Why is checking Windows Update so slow?

I have Windows 7 PCs that have automatic update turned off. I do updates in batch once a month or so. But each time "check for update" takes 15 to 30 minutes. I don't understand why checking for updates can be so slow? I have to wonder what is happening in the background. Is it computing hash? Are my PCs with automatic updates enabled suffer the same fate every time it boots up (only that I wasn't aware)?
