------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Sep 29 13:25:34 +0000 2007 ------- The download via a bouncer link is sometimes very slow, so that a download takes hours instead of a few minutes. If I understand correctly the bouncer selects mirrors using a round-robin scheme. That is too simplistic. I think it should balance the selection so that mirrors with small bandwidth don't get as many download requests. Also, mirrors should be selected that are not geographically distant (you don't want a South American mirror if you are in Europe or vice versa). Also, it sometimes happens that you get the Chooser instead of the file open/save dialog, and then the Chooser reports the chosen download does not exist (while at other times it works OK). Possibly this happens when a mirror is selected that has not retrieved the file in question yet? And I have seen the browser hanging on a "waiting for openoffice.bouncer.osuosl.org..." or "waiting for ftp.services.openoffice.org...". Stopping, and clicking the download link again, doesn't seem to help unless you wait several minutes before retrying. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
