Yeah it was painful. Thankfully ~50% of that time was at the office, where I don't pay the electricity bill. A lot of the latter half was using a very unreliable DSL connection, which, due to rotting copper cables (and multiple chew-throughs from rats), I only get about half of the promised throughput, so upstream is limited to ~120 KB/s at best. I finally caved in and bought an LTE modem last year which gets me ~1 MB/s (on good days).
