In recent weeks, I've seen many instances of downloads of files coming in small segments, which seem to be the same for each server, but vary between different servers. Some Gentoo mirrors suffer this way -- not all -- & some general news sites, eg when delivering videos, which run for a few secs, then freeze, then resume etc. Once I observed a server doing this for several hours (a large file), then suddenly loosening up & delivering the rest of the file in one go.
Does anyone else have similar experiences or any comments ? -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
