I have snail speed download (ADSL2), a penalty for living way out of a city. It could take 1/2 hour in prime time Sunday evening. Don’t hold your breath for my result.
I download in the mornings: runs at about 500 kB/s. which is fair considering it is on copper and we are 10 Km from an exchange.
One of the penalties of living out of town.
We do have electricity sometimes. No town water or gas.
I’m in the suburbs of Vienna, but it is not paradise as well. In Vienna there are areas reserved for gardening and small houses (restricted in highth and footprint). I live in one of them. There is no fibre and there is no more free copper (which would be arial cables anyways). So it’s LTE, with 1.2 Mbitps minimum at peak hours. That’s a lot compared to your situation, but it is in a residential area, in town. I’m really waiting for 5G.
Across the street it is all big town, fibre and everything…
I’m counting a bit over 6 hours between 11:37 to 18:04 (GMT+0200)
But those KiCad developers are indeed doing a great job. Big things of course take months or even years to implement, but those small things often get fixed very quickly. I’ve seen several that got fixed within an hour, and sometimes even less then half an hour (I forgot whether it was 23 minutes or 27 minutes).
And on a longer time frame, some 200+ issues get fixed every month, but even so, new issues are created at an even faster rate and a few weeks ago it grew to over 1500 open issues.
I was just drawing attention to the speed and dedication these VOLUNTEER developers fix problems and create new features.
The programme is so lucky to have them.
