Hmm.
- there are no torrents for these files at the moment,
- the people publishing the images are publishing only a server URL, not
a torrent,
- the number of seeders of such a torrent might be so small as to render
the idea unlikely to work well,
- if the desire is for greater download performance, perhaps we should
figure out how to provide a mirror site closer to you, or encourage
multiple threaded downloads,
- you're welcome to seed torrents of these files if you like. ;-)

There's a menu drawing patch in this build that removes the delays.
Drawing smaller icons also makes things a little faster. ;-}

Yes, that's a known problem on the Wiki for this build.

That too.
Thanks for testing!
