Software Update isn't showing me 10.15.5 yet. Others?

On my 2019 16" I've definitely noticed that Zoom calls slow stuff down by a lot. Would be great if that gets fixed here.

Press ⌘+R in System Preferences – Software Update (really)

Wow, I never realized this.

Make sure the Search field isn't focused, it is by default on launch.

Why would a single application's behaviour get "fixed" by an OS update?? Isn't the issue with Zoom?

Have you looked in Activity Monitor or Instruments to see what Zoom is doing to see why the machine gets sluggish?

Thanks! Shows me up for not noticing that. Thanks for highlighting it, I honestly would have not noticed it otherwise.
