I have begun downloading this (for my own use). It
will take about 2-3
days. Is there a chance you could gzip it as well? Or perhaps the
contents is already compressed?
Hmmm, I suppose I should have thought of that earlier, but I just tried
it and as it turns out, gzipping it saves almost nothing anyway.
I looked at throughput (400 kb/s, pretty slow) and examined the path.
Looks like Global Crossing is having a bad day (130ms round trip time at
one point about 9 hops from me). Hopefully they'll get that sorted out
and your rate will rise.
