Parallel downloads

[cmandesign]

Behaviour

Steps to reproduce this issue

1. Make config file with proper credentials
2. Start FTP Grabber
3. FTP Grabber starts to download, but single file simultaneously

Expected behaviour

I expected to see multiple downloads when I set connection per host.

Actual behaviour

It only downloads files sequentially, one by one.

Configuration

• FTPGrab version : 5.1.1
• Platform : windows
• Remote FTP : Filezilla-Server-windows

Logs

FTPGrab logs (set --log-level flag to debug and --log-ftp)

Thank you for the report, I understand better now. The ConnectionsPerHost setting is the maximum number of FTP connections per host. This one is useless and will be removed in the next version.
As far as simultaneous downloads are concerned, this is not yet in place but I will take into account your request 😉
