Very slow download speed

[drmetro09]

Is there any way to increase the download speed , the download speed is very very slow

[jsavargas]

Yes, it seems to be a problem with the telethon library, I have another project that is the same as this one, but it uses another library and it is much faster, if you want to try it

https://github.com/jsavargas/telegram-downloader

Do i have to install it as separate docker container or changing the image to the other one will help?

[drmetro09]

I don’t want to create another bot as its tedious process , can you update the same faster library for this project… because this one is very very very slow

[jsavargas]

You should be able to change the docker and work without problems, I have thought about updating this, but it would no longer be telethon, I am waiting for the telethon library to be updated to see if times improve.

I tried the new telegram-downloader but this is also slow and csn you please explain what is the group path and how to I assign it to the files ( forward files)

[drmetro09]

it is also not using the tmp directory like telethon downloader used to do and how do i stop downloading the file once it is sent to the bot ?

Neither of the two bots stops downloading the file once you send it, I don't know if that is possible with the telethon and pyrogram libraries

I'm sure you are using the new one, the tests that I have done work much faster and the tests that other users have done to whom I have passed the bot too

Only 45 seconds to download 137mb

Yes , its faster as compared to telethon_downloader bot
