Are estimated download times accurate?
Time estimates on downloads can be pretty accurate. Given a server with an available bandwidth and a client with available bandwidth, a steady download rate can be achieved. A steady rate means predictably in terms of timing. How can I improve my app downloads in a short amount of time?
