Ask HN: Anyone noticing slow downloads from GitHub tarballs?

Share This Post

My Github actions started failing today because the “Set up job” step that downloads action libraries was timing out.

When I tried directly installing the library via curl from both my local machine and my vps, the download times were both very slow (relative to before). The internet speed on these machines are otherwise fine so I’m not sure what’s going on.

“`
curl -L https://api.github.com/repos/actions/setup-node/tarball/3235b876344d2a9aa001b8d1453c930bba69e610 -o test.tar.gz
“`

Is anyone else experiencing anything like this? Maybe this is a regional/CDN issue? (I’m testing from us-west)
