Fwd: Seeking RPM Server package for OpenWrt

[Rich Brown]

Hi Paul,

Good point. But it's worse than that :-)

It's also possible low-powered CPUs won't be able to keep up with the data stream, so won't achieve saturation...

Still, I figured I would ask for help to see if it might be possible to try. Thanks!
