Re: IBM download site is very slow

[Joe Pluta <joepluta@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sean, I was noticing some serious download speed degradation as well 
just trying to update Installation Manager.  I figured it was my DSL, 
but it was very strange - it would go to almost nothing for a few 
minutes, then ramp back up for a few minutes, then back down.  It was 
really bad.
