Question by Angus: How come when I download something with software update its faster than downloading with just Safari?
When I download a 35MB application using Software Update, it was faster than when I download a 17.6mb application with Safari. Why software is faster than downloading Updat with Safari? I was on the same broadband connection, at the same time.

The reason why this happens is because you were downloading the update from the Apple servers. Apple does not cap the bandwidth on their servers. Whatever you were downloading from the internet using the Safari web browser was probably from a website that is caping the total speed of your download. Keep in mind that some webpages may download faster than others and whatever you download from their websites may download faster than others. There is so many variables that play a role in the speed of your downloads.
