it occasionally jumps to 50mb/s for a few seconds then goes back to being slow
shouldnt it be at 500mbps constantly?
What datacenter?
And is that a HF downloader?
EU-SE-1
yep

Keep in mind file download speeds using that are combined
Like its doing 6 at once
yeah but usually combined is like 500mbps
now its 6mbps
And HF's side can be slow sometimes
I can start one in the region to check

Actual download speed
So internet speed is good there, now ill check persistent storage speed since that tends to be a bottleneck
Persistent storage speed

Mine is actual speed not mbit
So its around 800mbit
If yours is slower than 80mb/s actual speed its not runpod since for mine they can
i was downloading the models using a script so when I tried a cli command the speed jumped to 100 but it still wasn't as fast as usual

100mb/s actual speed I expect on persistent storage
That tneds to be their cap in secure cloud
Container storage is much faster
oh okay that makes sense
i'll have to fix whatever is bottlenecking the speed in my script then
thank you!
This looks normal to me though
Whats your use case?
trying to finetune qwen3 MoE
$100 spent in computation power and 0 progress lol im about to lose it
