Updates are obtained from sources in the order you specify. If a source is not available, the next source in the list is used. When updates are published, some logic is applied to minimize the size of the update. In most cases, only the differences between the latest update and the update that is currently installed (this is referred to as the delta) on the device is downloaded and applied.
