The curl-wget Venn diagram
I recently found [axel], which is very impressive wget-like tool for larger files.
[axel]: https://github.com/axel-download-accelerator/axel
- Is there a way to configure docker (or podman) to use axel while pulling images from docker hub on linux?
-
are these wget downloads always around 100 kbps?
no - https://github.com/axel-download-accelerator/axel it's really only for linux - there is a chocolatey ver out there for windows but if you're on win10/11 install bash and use wget2.
-
can't find the bottleneck for my client. Pls help

Help on how to approach understanding a new codebase
So I am new to software development and trying to get started in open source. I'm trying to figure out where to start reading the code for some project, say Axel. As per my current understanding, the function definitions should form a directed acyclic graph and I need to start in the topologically sorted order. Is there some existing library that allows me to do this at a higher level? I didn't know where to ask this so I hope this gets answered.

Give your Mac (imaginary) unlimited storage thanks to Disk Utility’s bug
That said, "download accelerators" were also clever programs that would create multiple connections with the origin and use Range headers to download different parts of the file.
Wonder why I don't hear of them anymore. Maybe because server upload bandwidth is more often generous enough to saturate your bandwidth these days?
You can do this from the command line with axel: https://github.com/axel-download-accelerator/axel
