Hoping no issues on Huggingface due to download rush.

For huge models like these, the only reasonable way to host them is via torrents. I don't understand why hf doesn't offer this as an option.

Linux distributions got this right: Offer both HTTP and Torrents. Let the user decide.

		I believe they don't do torrents because it gives them a lot more control. Like they can takedown or update downloads and they can prevent someone from trivially bypassing the license agreements you need to accept for some models.

It’s going to get very little downloads just by virtue of size. Very few shops will be able to directly use it
