Well, I might as well ask my tech support question here :)
I just ran the upgrade to 6.0.0, and it downloaded so many things concurrently that it killed my wifi (old router). Is there a way to cap bandwidth or maximum concurrent connections? (this is something I have to do in many download heavy apps, e.g., steam)
- srik 4mo agoI don't think homebrew allows throttling bandwidth but it does let you set maximum concurrent downloads though. I believe the default is twice number of cores; you must have quite a few :) Set this to your preference: HOMEBREW_DOWNLOAD_CONCURRENCY
- grosswait 4mo agoYou could use network link conditioner to artificially limit, or one of the apps that can enforce per app limits such as tripmode
