$ man apt.conf $ echo 'Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth "0";' | sudo tee /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99-no-pipelining We made this as an option to configure easily in cloud-init because we were changing a default that exists in any other un-modified version of ubuntu. Rather than just making this configuration change in our build process, we put it into cloud-init, so anyone making cloud-images themselves would get this change for free (as long as they have cloud-init). Because cloud-init had made the change, we made it as easy as possible to disable this change if you wanted the benefit of pipelining. -- Ubuntu-cloud mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-cloud
