FAQ: Version 1.5 |
| Is s3cmd version 1.5 slower than earlier releases? |
Version 1.5 is a bit slower because calculating both the md5sum and sha256sum values for every object being uploaded is disk I/O intensive, and both calculations are necessary. Future versions will work to minimize local disk I/O.
| Why did s3cmd version 1.5 drop python 2.4 support? |
The new signing code implemented in version 1.5 is not easily backwards compatible to python 2.4 libraries. Minimal requirement is now Python 2.6. Please note that Python 3+ is supported since S3cmd version 2.
