# BigFiles
Status: **Done** (waiting for feedback)
[](https://travis-ci.org/mtojek/bigfiles)

Are you bored with overloaded speed test services? You don't have to use them at all, because you can run own webserver, serving **large test files** (custom size: **100 MB**, **100 GB**, **1 TB**..., upto **8192 PB**).
There is no more need to use publicly hosted storage services to download ordinary **100MB.bin**. With a single command spawn **own speed test** instance to verify your Internet provider.
