Download Threads

Download Threads = number of concurrent downloads and extracts

You can set any amount of download threads you want (replace X):

stalker-gamma-cli config set DownloadThreads X

In instances where you're download speed limited per ModDb addon, increasing Download Threads by a lot helps. How to know you're download speed limited? If each curl download speed in ~2/mbs you're probably limited.

If you have the processing power, you can increase your download threads by a lot. 10 is a good start in these circumstances.
