I had slow download experience today too. Let me describe detailed how that was looking: I downloaded client, logged in and pressed that big green button to download and install the game changing nothing (latest release 1.19.4 was selected).
The next 15-20 minutes (not sure) it was downloading pretty slow, so I opened Task manager to inspect if I have any troubles on any point. But all seems to be calm - processor load on minimum values (from 0% to 20% with average 5%-8%), RAM around 1/3 with minor changes, SSD load was high sometimes but not even 1/4 of time, like something was waiting to write down files once per some period/event, also, I have good network and download speed wasn't very big average 5-10 Mb/s (enough to go up to 100 Mb/s on a WiFi and up to 500-600 Mb/s on a wired connection not only by specs but at practice as well).
Suprisingly after downloading around half of files ~300Mb/~650Mb I lost the exact point but all next things happened in 1-2 minutes and installation was succesfully finished.
I'm fine with such behavior and not worried too much. But maybe this information can help you to make your product better.

Thank you for your attention.
