Get your Geo::Coder::US DB file here!

[ #33730 ]

I've put up a freshly built Geo::Coder::US DB file for download here:

It's 384MB compressed (845MB uncompressed), but believe me, you'd much rather download this than download the 6.6GB of TIGER/Line source files needed to build it!

Supposedly I've got 6TB of downstream bandwidth each month at my ISP (Dreamhost). I guess we'll see if they meant it! I should hook up something to take down the file automatically if I go over my limit...

  • A bittorrent seed would be a good backup when Dreamhost tells you you don't REALLY get 6TB of bandwidth. :-)

    • If you want to set one up I'd be happy to add a link. So far the download hasn't been very popular so I don't think it would work very well. Bittorrent really shines when you've got a lot of downloaders. -sam
