I did not see that improvement when Ben posted, but I got the impression that my last uploads where processed faster again, so if something changed during the last 5 days it was to the better. Gerd Tom Hughes-3 wrote > On 17/05/16 06:14, Ben Discoe wrote: > >> API download and upload has

API download and upload has gotten fast(er) tonight, for the first time since the server move on May 9! Whatever they've done today, it's working! I am so happy. This really impacts my life. Thanks, Ben On Fri, May 13, 2016 at 5:59 AM, Grant Slater wrote: > Hi All, >

Hi Grant, Thank you for the technical explanation and especially for all the efforts improving the infrastructure! It's unfortunate uploads are so much slower now, but if the whole setup is more reliable/redundant, that's a small price to pay. Polyglot 2016-05-13 14:59 GMT+02:00 Grant Slater

Their response is indeed so vague that I suspect even they don't know what's happening ;) Certainly, when you use JOSM, you can choose how much objects to upload at once. Small bundles (100...200) seem to work better. You can experiment with it. Michał On Fri, May 13, 2016 at 7:02 AM, Ben

2016-05-12 Thread Ben Discoe
Several of us have noticed radically slowly upload speed for changesets, roughly since the server move on May 9. Like, as painfully slow as it used to be, it's now several times slower. It's been discussed with @OSM_Tech on twitter, in this thread:
