The larger the bandwidth is, the more data that can be transmitted at a time. Therefore, a file can be transferred much faster if the internet connection has a larger bandwidth.
Bandwidth is also, in a way, an internet connection's maximum capacity, and we can express it in units of bits per second. Internet bandwidth can also represent the maximum speed an internet connection can have. However, when moving a file from one computer to another, the maximum transfer speed will depend on the slowest bandwidth that the data has to go through - which can be anywhere in the route.
To better understand this, let us consider an example. Let's say that your friend wants to send you his new MB megabytes video creation over his 10 Mbps megabits per second internet connection.
On the other hand, you will be receiving the video file over your 5 Mbps home internet connection. For this example, let us assume that the upload and download speeds for both connections can use their entire bandwidths. Since the file will also be coming through the much lower 5 Mbps connection, this will be the maximum transfer speed that we can get for this data transfer.
But, to determine the upload and download speeds of your connection, you can use any third-party speed test applications that can be accessed online through your browser. Now that we know how to determine the transfer speed for our uploads and downloads, we can now calculate a file's download time or duration.
Calculating download time is as simple as dividing the size of the file you wish to transfer by the transfer speed of the network that the transfer will go through. However, we have to be careful with the units we use, since this could be quite confusing. Let us consider the example above for our sample computation.
To calculate how long to download the MB video over a 5 Mbps internet download speed, we can use the equation below:. But first, let us convert the units of the file size in terms of megabits, which is equivalent to 1 million bits.
To do so, we'll be using the conversion table above under the SI system. With that said, we now have this computation:. As shown above, the MB video file will finish downloading in less than 11 minutes over a stable 5 Mbps connection.
However, if somebody else in the house uses the internet while you're downloading this video file, it could take much longer to complete the download because of congestion in the data transfer.
Aside from calculating the download time of a file from the internet, you can also use this calculator to determine the transfer duration from, let's say, a computer to an external storage device like a USB flash drive.
However, you must first know the transfer rate of your connection to calculate the transfer duration. Sign in to your account. Hi there. I seem to have some issue with the Installing or Updating dependencies steps taking forever. To isolate my issue somewhat, I created a new directory, use the latest composer at the moment 19bfd6c7 , and put this composer.
Is this expected behaviour to take roughly 60 seconds to determine whether there is updates, even if there are no actual updates? Downloading this JSON from packagist took 0. I just did a speedtest. The environment I'm running in is Ubuntu The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:. On my laptop I get 18seconds first run and then 10seconds with a warm cache json files from packagist are cached.
So if it's not network i. Not sure what to do about that of course there might be improvements we can do, but nothing major I'm afraid. Install from lock is almost instant no matter the machine. Sorry, something went wrong. I also ran the same on my Linode VM and got 25 seconds then 18 seconds. Out of interest, what is Composer actually doing in that initial "Installing dependencies" bit? It seems very CPU intensive.
Does it multithread or is it single threaded? It's checking all the requirements of your package and your dependencies to try and find a solution to install. Since it does this in a fairly advanced way unlike some other package manager that took more simple approaches, it can take quite a bit of computing power. Unfortunately php can't do multi-threading, and to be honest I don't know if the problem at hand would be easy to parallelize even if we could.
Computer network state As a computer user, you must know that the computer data downloading speed often is largely affected by the computer network state.
In other words, when the computer internet speed is fast, your computer downloads often can take a shorter time. When the computer network state is too bad, the computer downloading speed also could be really slow.
Computer download speed limits. Generally, except the computer network state, how long you will take to download something from the websites or other internet locations often also are limited by the maximum computer downloading speed.
Download too many files, videos, songs and more data at one time. Run too many programs, tools, files and other processes while downloading. Have you open and use many programs, tools, files and other background processes while downloading? If so, that could be the reason why your computer downloads take too long. Computer viruses In daily uses, the virus also is able to bring people extremely slow performance.
And it also can cause people unbearable downloading speeds. Overall, the reasons behinds often depend on your different situations. Have you fed up with such extremely slow computer downloading problem?
