[Feature Request] Multi-threaded downloads #899

Closed korewaChino closed 4 months ago

korewaChino commented 4 months ago

What feature should be added to Suwayomi?

Allow Suwayomi to download multiple chapters at once instead of one at a time

Why/Project's Benefit/Existing Problem

This makes downloading multiple chapters faster, as you can download multiple chapters at once instead of going through each one.

Implementation-wise, you don't need to download the entire queue at once, but can have a limit for how much it could download at once

This has been considered before and we decided not to. Multi-threaded download is a easy path to get banned from the website. Because of this, we allow multi-threaded by source downloads, but not multi-threaded by chapters.
