The curl command provided in the Getting Started section of the readme actually downloads a HTML redirect page instead of the .tar.gz file and it seems that the link in the redirect file cannot be used as is with curl/wget. I am not sure if it is possible to have a direct link to the file, but if someone knows how, that would be really useful. Thanks !

Looks like we need to add the --location option to the curl command. e.g.,

curl -O --location https://github.com/brianfrankcooper/YCSB/releases/download/0.3.0/ycsb-0.3.0.tar.gz
