OPERA Download Speed

Look at that 10mb/s it was going at 64mb/s but it was at the end of the download and started to slow down. I was trying to get a snapshot with the highest but it didnt work.

It was probably for like 2 seconds.... Right?

Heh -- looks like a resumed download partial.

Say it was a couple 100 MBs in size and you had 90+% of it.

The first second it thinks you downloaded all 90+% of it, and reports some stupidly huge download rate. That number doesn't really mean anything, because it's no longer connected to reality.

101265KB/sec = ~98MB/sec

T3 = ~5.5MB/sec



edit: also, most current hard drives only write at 10MB/sec max

erm...what's the point in showing a fake speed?

the whole reason for people posting those stupid "look at my speed" topics is that they're actually getting those speeds

you're obviously not getting 145MB/sec, so why post...you even admit it's a fault in Opera

It's because of the latentecy and ping times that numbers may be outputted misleadingly because the system can't display the dynamically changing numbers quick enough. And yes a 7200rpm HDD can only write around 10MB/s unless you have RAID, SCSI or SATA rather than Ultra-ATA or ATA-100/133.
