What *specifically* is it that you feel "takes up too much bandwidth"?
The detection process itself is virtually invisible to bandwidth consumption.
If the downloading of update content, you can configure your WSUS server to direct the client to download direct from microsoft.com outside of the VPN channel. This is also advantageous because it allows the client system to continue downloading content (and thus updates are installed sooner) even if the client system is not connected to the VPN.
You can also configure a policy to restrict the amount of bandwidth used by the client system when downloading update content.
