You can also change the -progress=dot:mega part to -progress=dot:default, -progress=dot:binary, -progress=dot:mega and -progress=dot:giga this setting helps you see how fast the download is going, and preserve more than a single reading over the whole duration of the download, which is helpful for when you need to share the results with someone, or just save it for your own records as a sort of a graph. You can change the 10mb part in /10mb.test to 1mb, 4mb, 5mb, 10mb, 50mb, 100mb, 200mb, 400mb, 2000mb, 4000mb, and possibly some other values. I'm regularly using something like this: % wget -O /dev/null -progress=dot:mega date This could be solved by the -j option which tells aria2c the maximum concurrent connections we want (Which by default is 5) but if the server has limited this, -j will not work. We set 8 parallel connections but the site only allowed a maximum of 5 as shown by CN:5. But if we tried to have more connections we would get something like this: The CN parameter in the next line shows how many active parallel connections were permitted to download from that site. In the image, the -x 4 is how many parallel connections we wish to use.

To use aria2 we fist need to download it: sudo apt-get install aria2

The downside of wget is the lack of parallel connections. Never test only from the same site as this can be affected by your distance to it, any problem in the server and the connections to it, etc. You need to have at least 4 or 5 different testing sources to have a more accurate speed. This will help you have a more accurate check. You need to do the test at least 5 times to have a reliable speed check or at least do it for a minute or two. If your connection is 512KB and the place where you are downloading is 400KB, your max connection will be 400KB because it is the max for the server you are downloading from. The highest speed you will see is the maximum speed that your connection and the server's connection can offer. In the case of my link the speed is less than 200KB so if you have a higher speed, the server will be the bottleneck for you, not your actual speed. Of course there are several recommendations: Typing: wget would start to download the Ubu1.avi file and show at what speed it is downloading. To use it just point to a file in internet that is relatively bigger so that you can get a better estimate of it. That little tool tells me nicely what speed I have.

For Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial) and later use: sudo apt install speedtest-cli Speedtest-cli is in Ubuntu repositories now. Using pip install -user speedtest-cli gets you a version that is probably newer than the one available from your distribution's repositories. Hosted by FiberCloud, Inc (Seattle, WA) : 44.028 ms The short version is this: (no root required) curl -s | python. I created a blog post ( Measure Internet Connection Speed from the Linux Command Line) that goes into detail of downloading, installing and usage of it.

Is Linux Mint faster than Windows for real? Y’know, I reckon it probably is Linux Mint 19.x family feels peppy in general.I recommend the speedtest-cli tool for this. In all but one of the tests Linux Mint out performs Windows 10, albeit by margins that some might argue don’t matter or are (in some cases) only marginally perceptible delays (hey, I’m trying to be balanced here). Now, I don’t know the exact testing methodology used for this test but the results do make for an interesting, if somewhat anecdotal, read.

Linux Mint vs Windows 10ĭXM Tech Supports’ James Mawson says he used a HP 245 G6 laptop powered by an AMD E2-9000e APU in the tests, and vanilla installs of Windows 10 ( May 2019 update) and Linux Mint 19.1 (Cinnamon edition).įirefox 67 and Slack 3.4.2 were used on both operating systems but different versions of LibreOffice (6.0.7 vs 6.2) and GIMP (2.8 vs 2.10) were used due to Linux Mint being based on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. You can learn more about the test machine and the choice of applications in the accompanying blog post (link no longer valid, so removed March 2021). A comfortable win for Linux Mint, isn’t it?
