I was thinking a little bit ahead in the future, e.g. when we have more
build farms (if it ever happens), or with Torrent / IPFS support.  Then
I believe it would be highly beneficial: a sufficiently fast  connection
could effectively parallelize enough downloads to fill the bandwidth.

Also what about the CDNs?  Is it currently possible to download from
multiple CDNs at the same time?
