Obviously connectivity to git.gnome.org and svn.gnome.org may be quite different - they are hosted in different places (svn.gnome.org in Europe, git.gnome.org in the US) But in every case we've looked at, bottlenecks checking out from git.gnome.org: A) On someone's local connection or network provider B) Somewhere in hand-offs between major networks With no network constraints, you should see download rates of 1 or 2 MiB/s. (I consistently get that from the Red Hat office in Massachusetts, somewhat slower from home - but still 10x what you are reporting.) Of course, checking out everything is a one-time activity so almost by definition it won't be the same in the future.... - Owen _______________________________________________ gnome-infrastructure mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-infrastructure
