Follow-up Comment #4, bug #20417 (project wget): In my case an nginx server (from which I download several pages gathered in links.txt file) uses 503 error to slow down the download. If the requests for html files come in periods closer than 3 seconds to one another, then 503 is returned. So "wget -w 3" helps. However I wanted to show this case as the one that would also be better handled by automatic retry of 503.
If I use "-w 3" it always waits 3 seconds, even for helper files like gif, js, which could be loaded immediately instead. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?20417> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
