Very true. It is ALWAYS that way for some days following a release. In a week, the download part of an update will take 20 minutes. If you download the .iso using a torrent even on release day it does not take long. But when all the updaters are hitting the same servers, they are inundated. BTW, I believe if you download the alternate install .iso, you can actually upgrade from it though I would have to look up the details of how.
