The FTP server gets pretty slow when there is a new release. If you use
the standard HTTP downloads, you get the benefits of the distributed
mirrors, so it's pretty quick. The primary reason I go to the FTP
server is to see *all* the releases, including betas; a lot of stuff
gets hidden on the HTTP side (reasonably so).
If you'll post a link, I'll test that as well.
I neglected to consider one other possibility: if an ISP or some other
intermediary is caching popular downloads, they could deliver them more
quickly on request than if you downloaded directly from a slow source.
