pinster Posted October 10, 2003 Posted October 10, 2003 I wonder why download managers like download express, download accelerator, getright and etc. often out-perform the IE's default downloader? What's the mechanism or algorithms behind it?? Anyone has any idea?? BTW, where can I find more references on algoritms?? It would be great for developers!! :) Quote Nothing is impossible in Programming! So, take it easy and let us all share your problem. :)
*Experts* Volte Posted October 10, 2003 *Experts* Posted October 10, 2003 I believe the general idea is that they search for mirrors which serve the same file and download different segments simultaneously from the fastest servers it can find. Quote
