Where do you get the 44.8GB number from? I see a 37.5MB zip file available for direct download or via BitTorrent.

The torrent does not appear to be working properly (at least for me, I see no seeds and one tracker only that doesn't respond). But The direct download works.

I would bet 45GB is the full raw text of all the docs, and that's not what this is.

It's not a huge file but there's definitely a lot of data there.

This is just a database of the Entities (319,422), Addresses (151,128), Intermediaries (26,643) and Officers (345,646).

They also include an "edges" file to indicate relationships.

It's weird there are no seeds for you. I've been seeing it for ~20 hours or so without issue.

This is the metadata for it, if that helps:
