AIUI, apt-get already supports concurrent requests, but only to diffferent servers at once. From my understanding of the code, queueing in a way to handle multiple concurrent requests to the same server has some internal API but isn't implemented. I believe that S3 is higher latency than normal as a consequence of its higher resiliency, and that you're "supposed" to use parallelism to improve performance. I do hope to enhance apt-get, but it's quite involved so haven't found enough time for it yet. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
