Maybe it's already exists... Possible use to pre-generate cache.

Multithreading in this case really nice, wget too slow.

i have found it :) --delete-after Don't save downloaded files. (default: off)

magemore commented 10 years ago

But "--delete-after" does it mean file actually downloaded to disk? And then deleted from disk? Isn't it faster download just into RAM.

Mget doesn't save the file to disk just to delete it afterwards (Wget does this). BUT: Mget creates the directory structure needed to save the file if it were saved. For some it may be a feature, for others a bug ;-)
