Taking a long time to download the test set #242

Running the command sacrebleu -t wmt17 -l en-de --echo src > wmt17.en-de.en, now takes forever. Before I could run this command in less than a minute. How come now it is taking me forever?

This is because wget http://data.statmt.org/wmt17/translation-task/test.tgz takes forever. It seems the whole data.statmt.org server is now affected. If it takes longer, maybe @bhaddow could help.

@martinpopel when will this issue be resolved? Thanks!

I'm in the process of setting up a new server, but it will be a few weeks more before it is ready. The current one gets overloaded very easily.
