I'm using aria2 to download 8 million jpg from flickr. Each image is about 100KB. I got a list of urls of these images in a txt file, the format is:

http://farm2.staticflickr.com/1070/1151334893_5a8e7f77f4.jpg

I'm wondering whether aria2 support writing small files in batch? Say write 100 image to disk when all of them are download in the memory, not just write every single file when the download is finished. Because I think writing in batch will better protect my hard disk.

Or do you have other software or opensource code to recommend?
