It did pick up some after 15-30 minutes. But it really took off after I opened up one more port in my firewall as the docs suggest. (Actually, they suggest opening a bunch of them). I kept opening consecutive ports one at a time every 15 minutes or so for about 2 hours. Unfortunately, I never saw an increase after opening just two total ports - 6881 and 6882 iirc. The whole download took just under 4 hours on my Comcast cable.
