Downloads: disable parallel downloads unless connection is fast #664
Comments
Thanks for this report. Maybe making the amount of download threads configurable would be a good solution for this. |
Most users probably won't think to configure it, so the default behavior might still be relevant. |
Fair point. I do think making it based on download speed would be harder to implement, but not impossible. |
I'd just give an option and introduce a way to dynamically change it in the downloads ui. The config option could then just use the current constants as default fallbacks. |
I've noticed minigalaxy seems to always download 3+ parts at once. This isn't a good idea on a slow connection and will only make everything slower and cause more dropouts. Therefore, I suggest this should only be done if the connection speed exceeds a certain threshold. Not sure where that ideally would be, but I'm guessing something like 10mbit/s as an absolute minimum.
Affected minigalaxy version: 1.3.2 (latest flatpak stable)
Affected operating system: postmarketOS 24.12 based on Alpine 3.21.3
