Parallel download limit page (`/limit`)

Too many simultaneous downloads hit /limit. Caps ul2_sim_dl_* (defaults 1/2/5/10). CDN direct may not fully enforce.

Parallel download limit page (/limit)

What you see when too many downloads run at once.

Where to find it

/limit and /limit?file={fileId}

How it works

Each tier has a simultaneous-download cap (ul2_sim_dl_anon|reg|prem|prem_pro - defaults 1 / 2 / 5 / 10; ≤0 = unlimited, positive capped at 64). Hitting it while streaming /d/... can 303 to /limit?file=... (JSON clients get 429).

The page shows Too many parallel downloads, your allowance, and CTAs (sign up / upgrade / wait). Mint-time parallel failures can show an inline error on the landing instead of always redirecting here. Retry-After fallback is often 5 seconds.

When nginx edge sim-dl is on, proxied slots are enforced at the edge; CDN Performance mode may not fully enforce simultaneous downloads.

Common problems

Still blocked after a few seconds

Wait for an active transfer to finish - slots free when downloads complete.
