Download Speed Slow on server side, but fast if using regular file download (save as link) #26

I've noticed if I just click the normal server side download link, the speed is quite slow... a movie takes several hours to download (like 3 or 4 hours) if I use the direct link, while I have to name the file myself, it downloads in a fraction of the time

if there a way to improve the normal server side download?

Hi there, sorry for late response. I tested it locally on windows and could not find any difference. In theory it should use the same url and server connection. On server client setups there might be a few reasons that could have an effect on that, e.g. different ethernet connection, slow hardware... Maybe there is a bottleneck in docker I dont know of, but I will be aware of that topic.
