[Dimitri John Ledkov]

Public bug reported:

"""
You have to download a total of 5276 M. This download will take about 
11 hours with a 1Mbit DSL connection and about 8 days 12 hours with a 
56k modem.
"""

Are meaningless. On 4G connectivity one can get stable 4-6 Mbit,
developing world speeds are 8-10 Mbit range, and developed world speeds
are 40+ Mbit

Please update the download time estimates using the 40 MBit and 5 Mbit
connections.
