I think it could be useful if it was announced a few days ahead. The we
could all start our torrents then the starter pistol fires and be happy.

I downloaded the latest beta last weekend and it averaged 300kb or so.
Not bad. But it still took a long time.

I can understand a policy of torrent only for a certain time after the
initial release, when activity should keep the download time reasonable.
Does the OpenSUSE torrent track how many systems are downloading?
Perhaps, when that dips below some reasonable number, the more direct
access can be enabled?

BTW, I like lots of what I see in 10.3. Only a few warts. I am going to
check the bugzilla and see if I have anything not known.
