cobhc Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 (edited) Hey, I'm in the UK and my download speeds for anything from the LaunchBox server are REALLY slow. I'm on an 80 Mb/s connection and normally see download speeds around 8 MB/s. From the LaunchBox server it's around 40-50 KB/s, or worse it just stops downloading. When updating to the latest beta this morning, it took me around 2 hours to update and downloading a theme is saying it will take 45 minutes, twice now it's just stopped downloading (see attachment). It seems to be fine around the forums, but any downloads are super slow. Any ideas? Thanks. Edited September 4, 2016 by cobhc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobhc Posted September 4, 2016 Author Share Posted September 4, 2016 Nice to know I'm not the only one, I think it was like this the other day as well when I tried to update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rincewind Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 It managed to finish the update and it did include the voice recognition updates. So I'll have to see if the next update goes the same way as I'm not sure if the updates the forum and the database are on the same server or not 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobhc Posted September 4, 2016 Author Share Posted September 4, 2016 Yeah, I'm not sure either. The database seems really slow right now as well though so it seems like it's all on the same server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Hey guys, this is a weird issue. For myself and most other people the downloads are very quick, but every once in a while they're really slow for only certain people, and I haven't figured out why. Regardless, I'm in the process of moving the application downloads to a distributed service instead of just on a single server, which in theory should help with the worldwide performance. Out of curiosity, though, where are you guys located? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobhc Posted September 6, 2016 Author Share Posted September 6, 2016 I'm in the UK. It seems to be a bit better now, but still not how I would expect it to be. Hopefully the server change will help. Thank you for acknowledging this Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suspendedhatch Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 (edited) I'm in California, the download process has been extremely slow since day 1. Torrents I'm able to download at 2mbps (11Mbps connection) but leaving LB on overnight only got me 1/4 of the way there so I cancelled it (torrents were all shut down at the time).
