Downloads too fast?

[yoni]

Is there a problem if my downloads are going much faster than my
computer can decode?
My downloads are like 50 files ahead of the decoding?

Thanks.

That's a pretty unusual setup...and although it *shouldn't* be a
problem, I certainly haven't tried it.

If it *is* giving you problems, you might want to try running with
--dthreadct 0 to disable threaded decoding. When you do that,
downloading will be halted until the decoding finishes. Depending on
the file size and speed of decoding, this could be even more problematic
because connections could actually time-out from idleness.
Experimentation is your friend here.

Well, It let the 8 GB download and despite the decoding being way
behind, it all came out OK.

Thanks for the advice.
