[Bug-wget] Re: Bug in informed dowloaded time

[Mariano Acciardi]

Thanks Matthew for your reply,

Are you using same version than me? Because the report is different.

When I investigate this issue was because real time in human perception 
to download is not the time wget report.

I'm using a very slow connection (mobile gprs) and download all wap page 
(16K) takes 12s in average, with wget and other programs included firefox.

I'm seeing all downloaded process, and real time to downloaded all files 
takes 10-15 seconds each time. Is sure that is not 1.4 second

I really think that this is an error, I tried several times and behavior 
is the same.

Regards
Mariano
