Hello nice people. Just a question: Downloading a beta version here to Europe takes hours for me. I am quite sure this is because the beta-software is hosted on a subdomain directly on the krontec server. I am sure, there is no copy located somewhere here in Europe, thus one really has to download directly from krontec. This is very slow, I suppose there is no dedicated contingent for such a small server. It takes 14 hours for me, and I really have the fastest connection here. Also, I know that these connections to oversea servers are almost like peer-to-peer. So: Anyone knowing a faster location too? Like github or so?
Thanks!
Are you using this official repo:
http://debian.krontech.ca/builds/ ?
Here in Germany, my downloads from there vary a bit in speed but are generally in between 1-5 Mb/s so adequatly quick for the ~500MB filesize. They do however start slow and then increase in speed.
Up to 0.3.2 the files were actually available on github:
https://github.com/krontech/chronos-updates/releasesAs the 0.4 updates have a completely different structure its understandable they aren't there.
You also only have to download the whole thing once and can then use the on-camera update which then only downloads the required changes.
