I have two downloaders working and they both seem to be running exceptionally slow.
But Task Manager tells me there's only 52% CPU and 32% Memory Utilisation.
So neither prog is starved of resources, right?
But could there be other conflicts in the downloading process when we use more than one downloader?
I think not. I've switched one off and things didn't seem to get better, or only marginally. But I thought I'd ask a matter of interest...
You can download simultaneously with as many programs as you want - the speed depends on both your internet connection's speed and the response from the server of course.
Does either run slowly (U.S. 'slow') individually?
Of course, if you had a fantastic massively fast connection, potentially your PC could be swamped handling the data...

Yep. What's the best way to check available bandwidth at any one time? Not the nominal and not the current usage but the available that I could use if I wanted? Download a very big file for a few minutes? With what? A browser? Or ftp?
Speed test- and then it depends on current usage which you could see in task manager, performance
Thanks for that. I seem to have, today, 35.5mbps down and 15.6mps up. That's megabits, not bytes, I take it.
My VPN reported downloading to a max of 750Kbs.
All very interesting. Thanks. I should have thought of it myself and done it before. Ah well. I'll do it now. Monitor, test, record. Conclude. Discover what's going on.
