Thanks Darin very much for providing your invaluable advice and
information.
Yes, this is what we have found using Necko that it cannot be run on
multiple threads as well when we run it in single thread for more than 6000
documents at a time then it crashes somewhere. But, for sure we can use it
for downloading 50 documents at a time. Your information has confirmed
all our results and we are very thankful to you for this.
On behalf of everybody at tSA Group, I thank you for taking your time
and providing this valuable information.
