Looking for some help in downloading a few thousand files from archive.org on ubuntu. wget is estimated to take 2 months... I figured I should ask the fellow data-hoarders!
This sounds pretty easy to do with Go, spawn hundreds of threads (which have a ridiculously small ram footprint) and off you go. A google search yielded this: https://github.com/ashwinGokhale/GGet
What are some alternatives?
