Took me just a hair over 6 hours to download both the "binary cds" and
the "dvd" via the torrent. Never saw much over 300kB/s on my 10MB line
and it was usually closer to 80-160kB/s, and the uploads were only
25kB/s on each torrent until I was done downloading when they jumped to
42kB/s each (768kb/s upload limit). So, I'm doing my part, I'm still
uploading! B^)
