Done The device is not the fastest but the CPU was idle all the time (2-3% used by bzip2) and I also doubt that IO (which is a bottleneck) is sooo slow. At least it should not need more than 2 hours to download 3B (this values is very very likely wrong). The internet connection should be limited by 200-300kB/s. Any idea how to speed it up? I deactivated already downloading package file diffs. Jens -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
