That's not what I meant, though the way I wrote it reads that way.

What I was trying to say is that the 100KB cap on mirroring of *http content*
spoils things for me.

Will  "--disable-security-limits" allow v3.4 to download 'regular' data at
speeds greater than 100KB?
If that's the case, then I'm sorry for not digging into the help file before
posting my complaint.
