Turns out it was on the server side, which I fixed. The downloads are
now speeding along quite nicely.

I've switched to the queueDownload method to get the files rather than
blocking (which was what actually allowed me to find the issue on the
server side)
Right now I've implemented the "hacky" way, because I'm still learning...
QDir dir;
dir = QDir(tempDLDirectory);
QStringList files;
QString searchfor = "*_sched.txt.gz";
int LoopCount = 0;
while (LoopCount < 60) // Determine the best loop count /
sleep combination to download files.
{
qDebug() << "Sleeping";
sleep(5);
LoopCount++;
files = dir.entryList(QStringList(searchfor), QDir::Files
| QDir::NoSymLinks);
if (files.size() == total_XMLID)
{
qDebug() << "Done sleeping";
LoopCount = 99; // Magic value to let routine down the
line know that we got all the files?
break;
}
qDebug() << "Downloaded " << files.size() << "of " << total_XMLID;
}
Work in progress...
