snapshot.pocketnet.app slow downloads #1075

Closed graebeerd closed 11 months ago

355k/s for a 40GB file...do you see the problem? it's two days out of date if it doesn't bork itself downloading.

Any chance of getting it back to 1.8MB/s like it used to be?

@graebeerd What ping do you have to the snapshot.pocketnet.app server?

using a 1gb pipe

It seems there are no problems in the middle, at least no obvious problems. Maybe this is due to the daily load of the server? Although I can't say that this server is powerful in terms of an Internet channel

I've tried it (I'm at -5) at nearly midnight, middle of the day, early in the morning with both FF and Edge with both hovering around 320kb/s. I can easily dl at ~2 MB/s (I have a gb pipe) at most other sites and well over 4MB/s on torrents. I've completely given up running an easy node as despite clearing/deleting the node, it never successfully downloads the db.

If you have a regular node with a loaded blockchain, you can use it in a simple node..

Whatever was done has fixed the DL speed as I get >5MB/S now and have for the last few times I've tried.

However, currently the the snapshot is over 2 weeks old and although installed fine on the Win GUI, it hangs and stops with only about an hour to go.

Once I can get a current snapshot (or more current) I'll close this ticket.
