Has anyone ever tried to sync with the network at a speed of ~0.33mb/s? Bitcoin syncs fine, monero not so much, was wondering if it was just me?
I often use a slow connection that will not sync at all unless I run monerod with the "--block-sync-size 20" option.
This worked great, it's syncing now. Thank you.

You can try
https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/2149 which should be much friendlier on slow network.
I'll try to try this next.
I'm running from a throttled 3G hotspot, that had used up all its 4G data when I decided I was too lazy to put the blockchain on another drive and synced from scratch instead. Today it's hitting 0.21/0.22 mb/s, is about 19 days behind and has been syncing for about 15 minutes now, about 40 blocks for every 1 new block.
