I am trying to download the cams global forecast data for the year 2025 using the API and it is very slow. One request took 12 hours (“request-id”: “25730c4d-8afc-4bc7-ac01-e567cf9b2239”)
I wonder if this is something expected or there is some issue. For the latter, when it is going to be fixed?
Hi,
please be aware that any data labelled as “slow access” is stored on tape instead of disk. Retrieval of this data will be MUCH SLOWER than disk-resident data. You should not select any tape-resident data unless absolutely required for your purposes. Dates more than 30 days old are slow access.
Thanks
