The snapshots will keep being generated whether kdesrc-build uses them or not, so you won't be causing any more server load. The main advantage of using the snapshots for the initial clone is that you can resume aborted downloads via the usual HTTP mechanisms, which is not possible via git://. -- Nicolas
