Aren't you using the compression option to gzip your files before downloading them? This compresses a 14mb file down to about 4mb, which greatly helps in the download times and reduces the bandwidth requirements on the SortMonster end. Also, are you downloading on some fixed schedule or when update notifications are sent out? If downloading by schedule, then use the wget "-N" flag so that you only actually download the file if it has changed:
-N, --timestamping don't re-retrieve files unless newer than local.

How about you? Do we have a timetable for this new release.... Sorry cant afford time to beta test! I do get alarmed at the huge .snf file at around 14 meg for my personal rule base..
