I'm sorry, I don't know what app you used to determine that update-
notifier was writing to disk, but I don't think this analysis is
correct. update-notifier certainly *shouldn't* be writing to disk, and
an strace of update-notifier on my desktop (Ubuntu 19.04, same as this
report) over a 10minute+ interval confirms that no writes are happening.
So there's no evidence that polling once every 10 minutes has any effect
other than a CPU wakeup, and once every 10 minutes is not that frequent
for CPU wakeups.
