Hi.
this might not be the correct place to ask but i see not better place.
i use the news server news.postgresql.org. every now and then i go
offline and i usually do a offline synchronization before (download
every message, head + body).
the news.postgresql.org server seems to have some speed limit that
only allows the receiver (my news reader) to fetch ~2 messages per
second.
this is painfully slow.
would it be possible for the server holder to change this limit (if
such a limit is in place) to allow, say, twice as many bodies to be
transmitted per second?
it is not a bandwidth problem at my end (but could of course be
something else at my end), i don't see this problem with other news
servers though.
There are no limits imposed on the news server, but you might want to
try news.fr.postgresql.org, which might be a closer server for you ...

TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
thank you.
that made a difference, the french server is twice as fast for me.
