I noticed after the I.A. verdict that download speeds are now limited to 1 MB/s or half that, no matter how many times I tried with JDW or changed my dynamic IP. Also seems to make no difference if I add a free account there or not.

I need to ask here if this may be related to the recent changes you made for this server.

Because if you are getting more than 1 MB/s (download), then the answer is no.

If possible, please try to download anything from there and tell me how fast it is.

Example:

**External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**

And even if you are getting 1 MB/s, this may not be related at all with the JDW changes, perhaps it's then again capping the bandwidth or experiencing technical issues. Also probably due to this recent and worldwide exposure.

This sort of thing has been complained with I.A. ad nauseam.

Oddly before this verdict I was getting much better DL speeds, and was able to download dozens of GB in the same day. Now when I try this, it never surpasses 1 MB/s.

It's also possible my ISP may be having issues where I live or did this to them (unlikely). So there are lots of combined factors that may account for this, and it may be temporary or permanent.

P.S. Speeds are now 1-2 MB/s. That is, if I try to download as much different links as possible. Combined, I can get 1-2 MB/s DL, no more than that.

No.
Are you getting better speeds via browser and/or when using a VPN?
Please go through this troubleshooting guide:

Browser and JD (each with only 1 chunk, without archive.org account): ~300KB/s
That is very slow.
I got a 1GiB/s connection here.
I guess the file is on a slow server or there is a routing issue.

If you are also getting bad speeds, then we don't need to look further. It's I.A. again having server problems, they are infamous for capping all their speeds (as the tweet below indicates)

**External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**

What changed now is that downloading is a LOT worse. So bad that I had to ask here.

I have a 600/300 Mbps internet and never managed to get more than 6, 7 MB/s in terms of uploading (even so, this is quite good, Bandwidth Monitor is the app I use to measure this), but these days the DL is reduced to 1-2 MB/s tops. For example, right now 10 links are being downloaded and the speeds combined are 0.7 MB/s.

The best I was able to achieve was 2 MB/s. And I try downloading all day. What I used to get in hours now takes days, if each link is from a bigger file.

1 MB/s is very slow compared to what it was before this verdict, it was probably 5-10 times faster.

A VPN is not necessary to test this, because if you are having the same problems and we are from totally different countries, this means they are not capping based on IP/range, which is another possibility I suspected.

I hope in the future this can be fixed, if it's temporary only time will tell...

Well I can't blame them I mean it's a free service after all.

You can do further tests.
If it is e.g. a serverside global limit by IP, you could try to use multiple proxies/VPNs to get around it.

I've only ever downloaded from archive.org for tests with our plugin but I can confirm that it used to be much faster.
I remember getting at least 30MiB/s.

I agree.

Did you also contact their support or do you rely on other users doing this?

A guy that works there replied to my complaint the DL speeds are down to 300 KB/s now. He said:

"It's not the server. In the power event a week and a half ago, our main router took extraordinary damage and we've ordered a replacement for it that will arrive and will fix the issue."

This was an odd coincidence of events, and the speeds are really pathetic right now, I was thinking it could be many things, even that I had to add a free account into JDW. I am glad this has been clarified, and JDW fixed the other problems. \o/

[notice]

@Perene: Thank you for sharing this information

[Perene]

Can you explain if there's some logic on IA download speeds with 11 links at the same time reaching 6, 7 MB/s total, and then dropping to 300 KB/s (total) when only 4 are being download also at the same time? I noticed that drop imediatelly after.

Is this a server limitation from them or some sort of configuration from my ISP or JDW that accounts for that sudden drop? I also had ISP issues this week, but today they seem to have been fixed (and were affecting DL speeds).

[pspzockerscene]

JD does not even have the ability to limit single downloads atm.
There are all kinds of possible reasons:
- You're downloading each file with multiple chunks and once the majority of them disconnects, speed drops. At this moment JD won't re-order chunk-sizes dynamically so if this was the reason of your problems, there would be no solution.
- Archive.org is purposely recognizing- and limiting JDownloader users (chances are low I think)
- Routing issues (using a VPN could solve such problems)

Basically everything stated in this article.

[Perene]

Looks like IA fixed both DL and UL speeds.

But the 2nd issue mentioned in post #18 is not 100% fixed. I'll explain:

When you add several links, a few still use the page URL as a package name.

I'll give you an example to show how this is not working as it should:

172 links were added using the filename as a future new folder. OK and expected (it was like this before)

16 were not. (no reason)

Look at the screenshot:

**External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**

The correct behavior would be: ALL of them with that 1st name as folder, not the 2nd one which is the page-URL.

You can check the DLC for yourself here, instead of doing a copy-paste of 188 links.

**External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**

After downloading, simply add to JDW and then you'll probably get the same results.

@Perene
Thanks for reporting.

Due to a bug in an encoding library, the "single files handling" fails for items containing one or multiple apostrophe characters.

We're working on it...
