Description Morgan Leijström 2016-01-24 00:02:43 CET 
If client(s) requests a file that is already downloading for another client, urmpi-proxy downloads more instance(s) of the same file concurrently, instead of feeding the second client(s) from cache.

(Slows down the fetch for the first client, downloads double of what i sneeded, and also the second client get file later)

Ideally it should feed the second (and later) client from cache - even during initial downloading.


Workaround for the user (to save bandwidth and have each systems update go faster):  Do not start more than one client at a time.

Reproducible:

Only umeabot pushed urpmi-proxy since this report was filed, so assuming it is still valid for Cauldron and Mga6
