when someone tells you that you have 6 3G images, you do the math and figure out that it’s 18G. Some more math shows that at 6mb connection, it takes about an hour to download one, and you can fit 15 people on a 100megabit pipe. more math shows that that’s approx 2 requests each hour for each image, and that if you get more than that things fall apart.
imagine, if you will, a world where that’s all BS. now you have 12 images, they totalto 97G … i think this changes my numbers a little bit. 8G apiece means we’re now talkign ~3 hours to download. and 12 images means we would have 1 req/hr. except it’s really 1 req/download period. so instead of 2 reqs per image per “hour” we have 1 req per image per 3 hours …
and apparently some of these images, which were supposed to go live next week. well, 3 weeks ago. well, technically 8 weeks ago, but now 3 weeks from now … apparently some of this stuff isn’t done.
but somehow I’m sure it’s all my fault now .. go me?
