Size of the files

In the current version of RERO DOC, viewing a document implies its complete download. For a fast (or acceptable) download time, it is recommended to reduce the file size. Although the maximum allowed size is 200 MB, such large documents should remain an exception.

The following table gives an idea of the download time for different file sizes and different types of connection:

File size		2MB		20MB		200MB (RERO DOC limit)
GPRS: mobile phone		5min		1h		10h
DSL Standard Min		12s		2min 30s		25min
Hotspot		7.5s		1min 30s		15min
DSL Standard Max		3s		36s		6min

Note:DSL speed estimation is based on a standard subscription (5000kbits/s maximum and 1200kbits/s minimum), GPRS (53kbits/s) and Hotspot 2000 kbits/s.

Multivio will relax this limitation.
