I just updated my map to the latest EU map version (Jan 19). I was surprised how long the download took (c. 30 minutes) despite having a fast 70 Mbps fibre broadband connection.
I also noticed that after the update about 8Gb of data was left behind in the folder C:\Users\[Your name]\Appdata\Roaming\Mazda\download_cache\. This stored data appears to serve no useful purpose so I deleted it. Is there a reason Mazda Toolbox leave this cache data behind or is it just sloppy software engineering on their part?
I checked there are restore files available in via Mazda Toolbox although I keep local images of my updates. I assume the backup data is stored on Mazda servers somewhere. Is the the restore process via Toolbox reliable?
