#386 Percentage and speed of download wrong
I am downloading my podcasts currently on a 56k
connection until my broadband is switched over, and I
have noticed that when downloading the podcasts, the
percentage of download and speed are wrong.
The percentage is over 100%, and the speeds are more
like a broadband connection.

I experienced the same problem, but I think I know what the
problem is. In my case I lost the connection during the
transfer. When it started up again, it looked very wrong
(362.1%; 1350.8kB/s). Watching it, it looked like the first
digit in the percentage, and two digits in transfer rate were
stuck, if you stripped out those numbers things looked
normal. My guess is that when the initial transfer died, the
values were not recent, but were appended. Here is an
excerpt from the log, doesn't look like it will help much:
