Raspbian Jessie Lite apt-get upgrade taking forever

[daf]

I installed Raspbian Jessie Lite on an R Pi 1 B a few weeks ago. It's been running fine. Today I decided I should check for updates, so I typed the usual:

$ sudo apt-get update

$ sudo apt-get upgrade

That was about 2 hours ago and it's still updating! It's not frozen. The information is still scrolling. Did I just go full Jessie on this thing!? If so, is there a way to revert (without reinstall)? Also, is there a way to keep this from happening again? (Do I need to do --no-install-recommends?)

apt-get upgrade will only upgrade existing packages it doesn't add any new ones.

If there's a kernel/bootloader update they can take a while to install especially on a 1B due to the number of changes it makes.
