which is central server based, with a cluster of servers
for requesting what the latest updates are, and a separate cluster of
servers for actually downloading the updates. Interestingly, when
a new version of a file is released the download servers produce
multiple verisons of it, each corresponding to the difference betrween
the current version and one of the prior versions that may already be
on a users machine. That way users can just download the delta between
their current version (whatever it may be) and the new one.
