You already got an answer more or less, but to specify, Fitgirl is one specific repacker of games that a lot of people trust. She (or he, or they or it, nobody really knows) specializes in compression to make the releases quick to download on slow Internet connections. Of course if you’re sitting on gigabit download speeds or something, the decompression will take way longer than what you save from the download.
Thank you for the details, much appreciated. I extrapolated from the other response - more or less, as you said - but you provided plenty I couldn’t have guessed.
There’s also the fact that her(?) repacks sometimes don’t install for some people, for some reason nobody has really figured out yet. But they’re a solid choice for those who sail the high seas, because at least you know they’re clean.

I’m afraid to ask what that is.
