[mkgmap-dev] Alternative Source for osm files

Sun Dec 8 20:06:26 GMT 2019

May be it is for me browser dependent. I started this afternoon the
download of germany with Firefox, it gives me an average download rate
of 160 kb/s. When it has reached nearly 50 percent of data, i started a
second download for this region with opera, and guess what, the opera
download overruns the one from firefox and will be ready earlier than
the other. So i dont know, what is wrong with the firefox download ?
