How long is an age? It normally takes up to a minute to populate on my
systems, depending on the amount of software installed.

mins thanks for your rep[ly

3-4 minute delay is too much IMO. The system is probably looking for a network resource to carry out an operation (fetch an icon resource, for example) and that may be causing the delay. You may investigate this using Process Monitor.

The next time you are in A/R at the top of the screen uncheck 'showupdates'
.. Can speed things up as much as 50% .
