I have a 3.1 modem but my ISP only has 3.0 speeds as far as I can tell. 1000/100 is their highest plan so the extra doesn’t really do anything.
My modem is 32x8 and I can see in the UI that only 4 of the 8 upload channels are actually bonded to reach that 100, which is half of the 200 that 3.0 can theoretically do.
All of the normal Arch packages are pre-built, so the only way you’d be compiling things that often is if you installed a large amount of things from the AUR. Make sure you get the bin versions instead of git versions.
The
google-chrome
andchromium
packages are already a binaries so my guess is you needungoogled-chromium-bin
. You can also use the Chaotic AUR repo to get pre-built binaries of a lot of the most common AUR packages. But ideally you should avoid using the AUR when it’s not necessary.While using the AUR is common, it’s a bit frustrating you are blaming Arch for your experience. If you only use pacman you would never compile anything, or have very many conflicts. It’s like if you added 20 different PPAs on Ubuntu and then complained about the problems that arose from that.
