fast downloading

I know you can set it up so clients download the compressed map files instead of the uncompressed ones. All of the stuff I've seen on the topic say that you use an external server and it automatically downloads the bz2s. My question is: Is there a way to have it download the bz2s off the main server (maybe by just changing the res file to reference the archive)? I tried doing this, but it seemed like it was taking just as long to download. Also, I was wondering if there was any way to have the clients download with the other not "trickle down" method without using an external server?

Not that I know of and not sure why you would want to do that. As it would be more work then to spend $5 for hosting.
