I think it's because the contents in DVD is not up to date. Maybe they already printed the DVD a month ago. As Blizzard is making changes to the game every week, no choice but to wait for the download..

I think the total 11GB is including the installation from DVD. Maybe DVD 6-8GB, the rest the download for updates. That means total time of installation for Unifi 5Mbps would be 1-2 hours. Correct me if I'm wrong.. hehe

Another theory is that the 11GB is the total size after decompression of the source file.
The compressed file would be only 4-5GB...

Hurm dont think the file is that big. I got my copy this afternoon, left it for install for maybe around 30 minutes and can play already, Unifi 5mb user, dont think 4gb download would finish in 30 minutes. But I always check and let the launcher update if there is any before the game release. Also check prior to starting the game there is no background download whatsoever.
Edit : I installed using the disc via setup menu of course

Edit : I installed using the disc via setup menu of course my file is 4gb because im downloading the whole thing digitally (no dvd). 4gb should be the size for the whole Heart of the swarm. I assume those who had 11gb update are those who do not have wings of liberty INSTALLED prior to the installation of HotS.

I already installed WOL in pc before purchasing HotS. Maybe as soul_fly9900 say always need to check and let the laucher update for new data patch. Currently have 2 laucher now which is: - WOL (Downloading previous remaining patch....)
- HoTs ( Installing and downloading BIG data lol...)
just FYI..for those slow connection and wish to play asap..you can go to laucher option -> Download preferences and tick the first one. This allow you able to play but some game data part may need stream during gaming. So...depends on player la hahaa..i choose to wait  slow laaaa 1 mbps gonna change to unifi!!
