Actually it didn't reassure me...
The overall cap is 20Mb/s (I forgot to say), and you'd need 4.
However the CMSSW install job took 2.5 hours to fetch 1.5GB (by apt-get,
but it was in the middle of the night) so we have been wondering if
there's some other per-transfer throttling being applied. I thought these
transfers using multiple channels would get round this, but the workings
of the Magic Packet Mangler(TM) remain opaque to us peons :(
Have you got something about 500MB (small ISO) you could try?
Duncan's up for a busy week, I think!
