Foldspace

A download utility to test throughput and duration that leverages configurable, concurrent, multipart downloads.

Usage

foldspace <url> <chunk-size-bytes> <max-parallel-requests>

For example, to download $URL in 5 MB chunks allowing up to 12 parallel requests:

foldspace $URL 5000000 12

NOTE: this program does not save the data it downloads, but pipes it to /dev/null.
