   No Postgres Bug! Heavy downloading problems...
   
   Long Description
   Greetings and sorry for wasting your time with a bug report on this...
   but from most available mirrors, I have tried to download the latest version.
   After a maximum of 6% the download stalls on all of them. and even in that time, the download is terribly slow (1 byte per second is not unusual)
   I do have an older version, but would like to upgrade... and I can't.
   This is annoying.
   
   I hope there is nothing severely wrong, but could it be that there is something fishy witht e files prepared for the upload?
   
   I hope you can fix this...
   
   Yours,
   
        Juri Memmert

   Hmm.  Where are you trying to download to, exactly (can't tell where you
   are from this web-bug-report)?  And what software are you using to try
   to do the download?

   Hmmm... I just did a transfer and got 37.38KB/sec from the main site. 
   
   Use the traceroute command to find out what is slow in your connection 
   to the site.  If you are on NT I thinkt the command is tracert (should 
   be in winnt/system32).  You can then see the node that is causing 
   the slow down.
