Use more then one connection at a time


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

i would find it usefull if downloading docker upgrades would be "multi threaded"?.


Currently it seems like it uses only one connection per file. 


For me this is a "problem" because i have multiple WANs and it could get nice split across them, for more speed. (it only uses one WAN currently)

 

I guess dockers/plugins/unraid updates wont get smaller, so this would probably speed up upgrade process which is a good thing.

 

Even if you only have 1 WAN using 2 or 3 connections could speed things up. 

 

Multiple WAN is good working with Steam, Origin, Windows Updates, i guess, they use more connections.

 

I dont know how much of a change it needs to unraid, but if its a small change, do it! :)

Yes, thats true. But on my exp, its many small files and some big files... so this isnt useful.

 

Is it hard to implement to use 2-3 connections for big files?

 

Updating of Docker containers is something you need to debate with the developers of Docker.
