Description mkkot 2011-07-31 22:24:00 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

Topic explains all. I'm trying to force kget to download a single file from filesonic premium with more segments in parallel because I can't saturate my link with their "fast lightening service".

I did Settings/Kget's Configuration/Plugins/Multisegment KIO (or whatever it is in English ;), set there 16 connection per address. Now right-click on a transfer, Transfer settings > Mirrors and I can see 16 connections. That's ok but why there is no full transfer? Well, netstat -t clearly states: 5 connections at time. Please fix this.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open kget, Settings/Kget's Configuration/Plugins/Multisegment KIO, set more connections per address than 5.
2. Start downloading http://noc.gts.pl/500mb.gts
3. Watch netatat -tc

Actual Results:  
5 transfers in parallel in netstat

Expected Results:  
Netstat's number of transfers should match the number set in kget's configuration

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.39-ARCH
Compiler: gcc

As far as I can see this is probably a limit in KIO which we use. We'll investigate that hopefully during the desktop summit.

SVN commit 1246223 by mfuchs:

MultiSegKio allows 5 connections maximum.

This way not more connections can be set which would not
take effect anyway as this is a KIO limitation.

Is this still open as of 2.8.90?

Hi,
sorry, I'm not using KDE/Kget anymore.
