Downloading a DNS profile itself doesn't directly affect DNS propagation. However, the downloaded profile *contains* the DNS records that will propagate to DNS servers around the world. After importing the downloaded profile into a new DNS provider, the propagation process will begin, which is the time it takes for the changes to be reflected globally. Propagation times can vary depending on TTL (Time To Live) settings for your DNS records.
