From what I have seen so far, it doesn't. PS4 non-plus folk have to manually check for the update while the system is on, turn off their TVs, and go do something else for 30 minutes to an hour for the patches.

I can also confirm that the same amount of data used to be quicker with the older method. The only upside is that we don't have to log into active accounts to update our games, with the current way on PS4s, and I'm not sure the loss of time is worth an aspect of patching that shouldn't even be a thing. At least this will allow me to download data whenever my sub isn't active, so I have less to install whenever I return to the game . . . assuming I'm not turning on my PS4 to do other things (like actually play a game).
