How large is the Calibre download?

jehane · 12-27-2010, 02:17 AM

Just wanted to know how big the Calibre download is. Couldn't find the info quickly here or on the Calibre site. I'm on a shared satellite link at the moment so I can't do large downloads. This is for Windows version. Thanks.

Thanks, might have to wait for a low traffic period or when I'm back in civilisation.

Another caution for a fellow satellite user, the Calibre updates are each the whole program file and not incremental updates. Each update is ~35 MB.

My volume limit is 17 GB summed over each thirty day period, ~550 MB day^-1.

thanks, i think i'll wait until i'm back home. I just downloaded the pdftoepub which was 6.7MB and that took over 10min.

Remember you don't have to download every update. If you're on a limited connection, I would highly recommend looking at the changes and only upgrading if you see something that looks interesting or is a fix for an problem you're having.
