Does the new updater handle the Update Filelists a bit better than 10.3?
10.3 downloads the whole file every time a change was made to it; instead of
just getting diffs (as I would expect it should)

I don't know the exact details but the updater (and package manager in
general) in 11.0 is way faster than before. The updater supports
"delta RPM" and all updates appear to be published in that format.
