If I remember correctly, when version 5.3 was released, about 95% was made available by BitTorrent before the official release date, so that the entire file would be available as soon as possible after the release.

I mean what drives the need that you need to have it _right now_ ? Me I always like to wait at least a week or two to see if others run into issues, and wait for the mirrors to become less clogged. nate
