Hi, I’m new to myEclipse, and I have to use it at university, but it’s a largedownload at home, so why is there no torrent to speed up the download? Just a suggestion. Thanks
Vijay. 🙂We considered doing a torrent but we decided to juse add additional dedicated download servers to make sure we could handle all the download requests. Let us know if you are seeing slow downloads from our download servers. Something may be wrong on our end.
Thanks for your support.
et us know if you are seeing slow downloads from our download servers.
That’s really why I posted last nite (I’m in the UK), it took me 3hrs to download (from aroung 8pm – 11pm), Eclipse itself only took 20mins using their torrent. I’m on a 512k connection so I felt the download was excessively long, thanks for the quick reply. Vijay.
Vijay,
That’s an interesting datapoint for us. We test download speed regularly from locations in the US and they are typically extremely fast. However, it appears there may be some bottlenecks going overseas if that is the speed you’re seeing locally. We’ll look into the torrent idea a bit more for our upcoming releases. Thanks for the feedback.
I am downloading from the UK and the download speeds are terrible.
Quite frankly I hate downloading each new version of MyEclipse just because the download speeds are so poor.
I am achieving about 15k/sec on 8Meg line and I can achieve 300k/sec from most download sites.
Great product, please sort out the delivery mechanism
That’s really peculiar. In the US I’m on an 8MB line as well and am seeing over 500KB/sec even at peak load times. I don’t know why the rates would vary so much overseas. Perhaps others redirect to overseas mirrors or something.
My download speed today (2.1 KB/s) is very slow compared to others sites (88KB/s). Are you throttling bandwidth?
I loaded up and installed using Pulse. Transfer was faster. I don’t like Pulse much though. Having a crippled before you buy plugin manager that has built in advertisements for itself isn’t what I’d consider free software.
Please look into the problem with downloads.
