The DLs are *really* weird: It downloads Gigabytes of zip archives which when
extracted results in files in the Kilobytes or a couple of Megabytes ...

Those ``tree`` commands were issued shortly after each other.
It seems to have DL 5x 1.8GB = 9GB, which resulted in ~23MB in files.

I've now broken off my ``fluster download -j 2 -r 5 -c H.264`` command
after it ran for hours. Hopefully I won't have to run it again.

Cheers,
