Download Speed - How fast you are patched?

It's starting to look like I may actually get to play for half an hour or so before it's time to call it a night :).
These must be by far the slowest 1.5 GB I've downloaded in several years (not that server issues aren't exceedingly common in online game launches, but if I recall correctly the actual downloads/patching have rarely caused trouble, usually it's been the login and game servers suffering).

I had to redo the download from it erroring. :(

I'm downloading since a good 3 hours. Pretty ridiculous tbh.

What a great ridiculous for GGG and all the players, this virtual world will have a healthy population. I like it.

The torrent doesn't include the patch if I read it correctly? I installed the actual game yesterday precisely to avoid having to download 5 or 6 GB today where I expected the servers would get hammered.

Torrent is even more useless, just a bunch of retards not seeding.

Thing is I'm at 90 percent and on it since like 3 hours. Now I've got the dilemma: "Will I try the torrent? What if in that time download speed would pick up again and I waste another hour?"

Fucking first world problems :/
