Topic: Why no .torrent download

How come the publishers don't offer a web-seeded torrent download?

Is it for lack of volunteers to manually generate a .torrent file for each release?

I think many would find the downloads to be much faster and alleviate some bandwidth cost to the project.

Time and resources.  It takes significant effort to maintain GParted and create new releases.

I am totally agree with thesavo, torrent download is needed. Sometimes GParted downloads too slow. I think torrent will be best option for many users. Why not just make a script that creates .torrent file and announces it to tracker and then add this step to your deployment configuration?
