Will the updates never end?

Right now Ubuntu Hardy (v. 8.04) is 1 week away from release. The problem is this: there are still over 100 updates daily! No one wants to have their internet connection bogged down like that. But it is probably a good sign. All these updates contain bugfixes, its just too bad we can’t download only the updated portion of a package instead of the whole thing. That would ease the internet load, especially for people with 56k connections.
