Re: download bandwidth restrictions?

It's due to the size of the workunits. They don't want people to be unaware and later complain.

If you want to sidestep the bandwidth limit, go to My Grid--Device Manager, select your relevant profile, scroll down to Project Specific Settings, and change the Number of units per host from "1 - Default" to 2+.
