I not use it for huge downloads, but rather occasionally when our national mirrors are incomplete or when I'm in window when local mirrors still isn't complete and need some interesting package from main repo. Or only see, which packages are new, as it seem as lately all packages to update repo go strictly from testing repo.

Otherwise I use local Fedora mirrors, of course, they gave faster access.
