Percona repo speed

General Questions
1

Hello Perconians!

Why download speed from repo 16-50kBs? I am in Australia and repo.percona.com resolves into US ip, ping 150ms. Why can’t you have geo-distrubuted repos?

Hi @Seventh_Son,

50kBs seems to be excessively low. I’m at a “ping distance” of ~250ms and still could get reasonable download speeds (of course, latency and bandwidth are not related, but just to compare with the data you sent):

  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
100 18.7M  100 18.7M    0     0  3128k      0  0:00:06  0:00:06 --:--:-- 4060k

I also requested a colleague to try from Australia, and he sent me the following:

  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
100 18.7M  100 18.7M    0     0  5263k      0  0:00:03  0:00:03 --:--:-- 5264k

Do you still have these issues, or were they transient?

Hello Agustin.

Do you use some tool to test the speed? Please share the command.

Hi @Seventh_Son,

Nothing particularly fancy, a simple curl to a random package in the repos:

└$ curl -LO https://repo.percona.com/tools/yum/release/9/RPMS/x86_64/percona-toolkit-3.6.0-1.el9.x86_64.rpm
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
100 18.7M  100 18.7M    0     0  3128k      0  0:00:06  0:00:06 --:--:-- 4060k

This issue was investigated and there were no issues with our repos.

Hello Perconians,

Much better now, seems it was a temporary issue.

Facing the same issue now, in middle of production upgrade and downloading from repo is happening for last 15 mins
