Where can I get Raspberry PI 4 Model B?

[Skeeter]

so I installed JDownloader in docker and its running okay, the only issue is it doesnt go beyod 7MB/s.

@vishalrao can you help me setup aria2 remotely? I am failing to do the same since night.

Nvm, I have setup ariang in docker. Its working fine, max speeds are of 22MB/s.

edit: it works but speed drops after every 5-6 seconds.

@Skeeter I wont be able to help lol I myself will need to look up the documentation online to figure things out

When you say it drops every few seconds you mean it also comes back up now and then?

It might just be normal traffic behaviour from the server from where you download stuff - it may not be providing full bandwidth all the time because others might be pulling from it at the same time...

its more of a hardware throttling issue.
Downloads fine on my mac at 30-40MB/s single threaded and 100MB/s multithreaded.

 

[vishalrao]

What storage are you using with your rpi?

Anything else writing to it at the same time?

You could try running a tool like btop to watch disk transfer activity and see if it spikes during the slowdown.

 

[vishalrao]

It could also just be CPU limitation...

Are you downloading like from encrypted connection https, torrent option to allow encryption etc? Try normal http or set aria2c option if available to prevent secure connection?

Might also need active cooling. Pi gets hot for me if it is consistently transferring data at high speed.

Disk i/o is likely the bottleneck.

 

[Skeeter]

but then why qbittorrent works fine at 20-24MB/s.

 

[vishalrao]

qbittorrent uses some sort of buffer/cache and only writes to disk at some intervals... (this uses up some RAM as buffer)...

but aria2c must be directly writing to disk...
