Speed of downloading image is very slow

[alfazick]

Hello
tried to run your script
I am at the step downloading 500 images
but for me it seems that downloading is very slow
can you explain me please why is that?

That's because the script saves images with public licenses only. You can remove this checking so it would be faster. Also speed depends on your search query, i.e. 500 images on "cats" query would be downloaded much faster than 500 images on "linus torvalds" query.

UPD: oops, didn't see the date before posting.
