Why is it a big deal? 2.5Gb takes like 20-30 seconds to download

Bold of you to assume internet access is great everywhere

ExperimentalGuy,

I forget that some people have crazy fast internet. Mine downloads 2.5gb in like 20 minutes.

MrFunnyMoustache,

Until not that long ago, my average speed was less than 1 Mbps because of insufficient infrastructure in the area.

PraiseTheSoup,

With speeds like that why haven’t you downloaded a functioning brain yet?

Faresh,

2.5 GB in 30 seconds is 83 MB/s.

PraiseTheSoup,

Or about 660 Mb/s, which is how we typically see download speeds written.

cumcum69,

Eh, my internet is 1gbps, I can just download something else

notasandwich1948,

the people you are downloading from usually don’t have such speed tho

Redderthanmisty,

That’s why torrenting allows you to download different parts of the file from multiple people at the same time.

cyberpunk007,

Doesn’t matter when you download off of dozens at once. This is what torrents do.

StorminNorman,

cries in downloads such obscure stuff that I’m lucky if it has 2 or 3 seeds

Inktvip,

I have a 4gbit line, and while I usually use Usenet to download a lot of torrents still easily reach 2-3gbit up/down.

gornius,

Am I too 1Gb/s fiber connected to understand that?

Torrenting in a nutshell! It can give out same error sometimes for incomplete file depending on the player used.

Omega_Haxors,

No big deal, just download the codices.
