Public bug reported: When using an https: connection, apt-get does not properly reuse connections. Because https setup costs can be quite high, this can cause much slowdown when, for example, many different distributions on the same server need to be checked.
I believe the attached patch addresses the difficulty. ** Affects: apt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Patch added: "enable apt to keep https connections alive for reuse" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1087543/+attachment/3453573/+files/apt-fix-keep-alive.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1087543 Title: apt-get does not properly reuse connections with https To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1087543/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
