Depends on the degree of sobriety

How’s hs so far? Stable? I’m on sierra.

Did a fresh install a week or so back from Sierra after holding out due to the bugs and the compatability issues which inevitably plague various dev tools.

Can happily say I’m pleased to have made the switch as High Sierra seems just as fast, if not slightly faster and a lot of the niggles I had with Sierra are gone. No issues with APFS although if I were you I’d go for the fresh install and transfer content rather than an in-place filesystem change.

Immediately after installation and restart there was no wifi. It was turned off and nothing happened when attempting to turn on. So I again rebooted. Seems okay now but has only been updated for 5 mins so time will tell.

2.47 GB, wasn't the last one quite a bit smaller?

Yes. This is because it downloaded the combo this time. Did for me too. There is a delta for beta 4. Not sure why the combo downloaded this time. Combos usually only download if you have skipped some point releases, eg going from 10.13.1 to 10.13.6. Whereas if you go from 10.13.5 to 10.13.6 or an earlier beta of 10.13.6 to a later one then we would expect the delta to download.

As well as overall size, you can tell which one you are getting by looking in the folder /Library/Updates as it downloads. If you see folder 091-90757 you are getting the combo. If you see 091-90756 it is the delta. Don't bother looking if you've already installed it - these folders delete themselves after installation. You have to look AS IT DOWNLOADS BEFORE IT INSTALLS. For public releases it should also say "Combined Update" in the mac app store if it is a combo - but it didn't this time for this beta.

Here are all the packages for beta 4 with their respective file sizes:
