Congratulations on your average internet broadband connectivity speed.

The new file download system required a slightly beefier hosting solution, so the CDN files and the main download are now hosted via amazon cloudfront. It's an enormous distributed system with local mirrors all over the world, so when you download a file you're always getting it from a nearby server with huge bandwidth. I've seen download speeds over 3 megabytes per second.

So, what I don't understand is if this has an affect on the color of the loading bar for servers. I have seen it Light blue then the original blue color. Would this new hosting solution have something ti do with that?
