I think this is normal.
My folder is currently taking 120GB of space, but I only downloaded 59GB on preload and 9.7GB on day zero patch, So the rest is game decrypting/inflating which takes a lot of CPU/disk time.
Pre-order games often preload encrypted as to protect leaks ahead of time, the way I see it... we might see at release time a small download with launch binaries to attach to the decrypted and deflated content.
