Re: Slow PPA downloads

["Mackenzie Morgan" <macoafi@xxxxxxxxx>]

I've gotten slower than that from us.ubuntu.com.  On multiple occasions (and I don't mean during the Gutsy release, it was a few weeks prior) I had download speeds from that server where the speed was measured in bytes, usually around 500-600 bytes per second when it's below 1K.  And I'm sure it had to be the server, because it's not like I'm on dialup (and even if I was...); I'm on a fiber optic connection where I can easily pull megabytes per second when dealing with a server that can handle it (4MB/s down from osuosl for an iso and one of my friends did 8MB/s down getting an iso from Usenet).

I'm currently downloading an update from a PPA that is downloading at
1KB/s. A few weeks ago, I was trying to download an epiphany-webkit
package from a PPA that was downloading at the same rate.

Is this going to be fixed in the future?
