error when set ftpd.Conf.set_max_concurrent_jobs
Closed this issue · 2 comments
as mention in title,
can you help me with this?
Sorry about that, i implemented set_max_concurrent_jobs as a way of limiting the amount of concurrent downloads, so you don't overflow your internet bandwidth.
But later on I discovered that whether you request concurrently (ask all files at once) or sequentially (wait for a download to finish to ask for another file) will not matter. FTP servers will always send one file at a time, so it seems that this feature isn't necessary and is now removed from the code base, but I forgot to take it out from the README.
You can still enable concurrent requests by using ftpd.Conf.use_async = True, it will only be useful if you want your code to send the download requests and then proceed to an unrelated task that don't require the downloads to finish.
Please let me know if you need any additional help.
