In order to download files, I’m creating a urlopen object (urllib2 class) and reading it in chunks.
I would like to connect to the server several times and download the file in six different sessions. Doing that, the download speed should get faster. Many download managers have this feature.
I thought about specifying the part of file i would like to download in each session, and somehow process all the sessions in the same time. I’m not sure how I can achieve this.
Sounds like you want to use one of the flavors of HTTP Range that are available.
