Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Plugins Group: Freevo 1.x series Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Frank Naude (naudefj) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Weather download slow Initial Comment: Here is a patch I've applied to see why the Weather download is so slow. It would be great if the patch can be applied to SVN. It will help people to understand that the weather download is actually quick, but downloading the radar map takes a lot of time. Sample output: download http://www.msnbc.com/m/chnk/d/weather_d_src.asp?acid=SFXX0044 - 1.0 sec download http://w3.weather.com/weather/map/SFXX0044?from=LAPmaps - 5.9 sec download http://w3.weather.com//maps/local/local/sf/1a/index_large.html - 2.9 sec download http://image.weather.com/images/sat/africasat_720x486.jpg - 3.1 sec So, it takes 1 seconds for the weather download, and 5.9 + 2.9 + 3.1 = 11.9 seconds for the radar map. Possible suggestions to speed-up the radar map download: 1) Hard code a maplink URL 2) Use threads to download in parallel ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=446898&aid=1603052&group_id=46652 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
