I am running a PHP
script that is responsible for downloading 55'000 images on one server and downloading these files into a folder on another server. It should take according to statistics per minute around 1h40 to complete the task.
It seems like the script is losing performance as the runtime goes by. The questions are:
- Does the script lose performance against the server as time passes?
- Why even closing the tab does the script continue to run?
- Can I abort script execution and relaunch it?
I know the script is running because by accessing the URL and give F5 the file counter in the directory is modified.
