Does Tortoise SVN throttle downloads?


I am pulling a massive repository from CloudForge using Tortoise SVN. My download speeds always seem to cap out at 1,500 kBytes/sec.

enter image description here

I get this speed on my internet at work, as expected. But with my 150/150 mbps internet at home, I get the same speed.

Is this speed being throttled, or is there something else going on here? If it is being throttled, is this happening on the client-side (Tortoise SVN) or the server-side (CloudForge)? Why?


Solution

  • Tortoise SVN does not throttle download speeds (Thanks @bahrep).

    I downloaded the same repository from Assembla, and I can confirm that CloudForge does throttle download speeds.
