Nick Boldt commented on JBDS-2730:
----------------------------------

Similar results for me replicating your tests. These were all done w/ VPN disabled, running in a Fedora 20 VM inside of Windows 8.1, at home:

Downloading large file w/o Amakai:
{code}
100%[=======================================================================================================>] 507,139,990  867KB/s   in 8m 12s 
2014-10-08 12:42:27 (1006 KB/s) - ‘jbdevstudiotarget-4.40.0.CR1-SNAPSHOT.zip’ saved [507139990/507139990]
{code}
Downloading with Akamai:
{code}
100%[=======================================================================================================>] 507,139,990 1.25MB/s   in 5m 52s 
100%[=======================================================================================================>] 507,139,990 1.58MB/s   in 5m 30s 
100%[=======================================================================================================>] 507,139,990 1.29MB/s   in 6m 42s 
{code}

Installing via commandline:

{code}
$ time java -jar plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20140415-2008.jar -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.director -repository http://devstudio.redhat.com/static/updates/8.0.0/jboss-devstudio-8.0.0.CR1b-updatesite-core,http://devstudio.redhat.com/static/updates/8.0.0/jboss-devstudio-8.0.0.CR1b-target-platform -installIU com.jboss.devstudio.core.feature.feature.group
org.eclipse.m2e.logback.configuration: The org.eclipse.m2e.logback.configuration bundle was activated before the state location was initialized.  Will retry after the state location is initialized.
Installing com.jboss.devstudio.core.feature.feature.group 8.0.0.CR1-v20140915-0805-B246.
Operation completed in 261693 ms.

real	4m44.231s
{code}

Installing w/ Akamai:

{code}
real	4m12.541s
real	3m55.568s
real	4m16.300s
{code}

So in both cases we're getting ~25% faster performance. 

My home bandwidth is: 25-29MB/s down (nominal 30MB), 4-5MB/s up (nominal 5MB).

> Investigate using akamai/download.jboss.org backed storage.
