What is better for bandwidth?

- you connect to 10 relays and download 1MB from each
- you connect to 1 relay and download 10MB from it

Defnitly the second is better for downloading. But wouldn't in an ideal world every note use the minimum amount of space? Therefore be saved in one relay. And every follower downloads it from there.

Then maby instead of one I choose two or three for redundancy. And the download works same like torrenting, as you explained to lower download bandwith.
