What?! Us worry?!

Love the comment on the latest slashdot posting about the Firefox 1.0.2 release: “have Mozilla sorted their distribution worries?” I would say in a nutshell, “yes”.

With this release of Firefox we have 11.64 Gbit of bandwidth across all of our mirrors and with Bouncer we can leverage every last bit quite effectively. Since the release late last night we’ve had just over 600,000 downloads of both the full download and the XPI update. The mirror network isn’t even breaking a sweat. During the 1.0 release we were in a world of hurt trying to serve out 1 million downloads in 24 hours; we’ll do the same in the first 24 hours with ease for this release.
