Anyone noticed an increase in speed yet?

“Over time, more and more of the content on Steam will be delivered using this new system. Soon, Dota 2 will be delivered using it. In the meantime, if you’d like to try out this new content system you can do so right now; if you download a 1280×720 (HD) trailer from the store, it will happen via the new content system”

Until Dota 2, it seems only HD-videos are using it so far according to Valve themselves.

Source games are not using the new file format which is needed for this to work, and I really hope they won’t ever use it considering it’ll break sv_pure and they’ll probably never fix it as in L4D/L4D2.
