Is there a multi-threaded app like wget that will DL parts in parallel ?
It's much quicker !!
Define "parts". I have used wget to download 3 or 4 different .iso
images in parallel. Like the several CDs that make up a Linux
distribution. Somewhere between 3 and 4 this maxes out my RoadRunner
connection.
I remember MANY years ago, on Windows, there was a downloader (Download
Accelerator ?) that bascially just used HTTP's Range header (IIRC) to
download 0-10k in 1 connection, and 10k+1 - 20K in another connection
(all in parallel).
Then I remember there was a Linux, multi-threaded app that did the same
thing, but it was flaky
