Having a gigabit internet connection means you can download any content from any server in the world at 1Gb/s, right? /s
The tone of the post makes it pretty hard to take that rant seriously.
- eaceaser 10y agoYeah. Honestly, of all things to be (ostensibly) this angry about...
- tomc1985 10y agoOne cut in a death by thousands perhaps? This propensity for complexity is really irksome. The "generation lost in the Bazaar" headline couldn't be better timed.

I don't know much about it, so perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but I've never gotten it to download at more than a few KBps, when git(1) manages to hit my max download speed easily.
- rspeer 10y agoHave you used Bazaar? I wouldn't blame you if you haven't. This is not about the server being slow, it's that Bazaar is really astonishingly inefficient and badly designed. Look at the guy in the replies who says "it's not that bad, I can clone a bzr repo in under 2 minutes". That is what you get used to when you use Bazaar.
