John, 28kbyte/sec is a practical limit of tcp stream over satellite link (or any link without packet loss but with 600 ms delay) with default kernel settings on the sending side. I'm getting the same speed in Ukraine :) May be it's the time to ask maintainers of ftp-master to adjust kernel settings on ftp-master to help us, maintainers of over-satellite-mirrors ? :) > Just worried that packages-5-current will become packages-5-stable > before I cvsuped them all. :-) Just have not enough disk space to maintain full mirror :( -- Alexander Snarskii the source code is included.
