I started looking at the possibilities and quickly found the solution. This instantly told me that something wasn’t implemented or optimised properly on Filezilla and Gene6 FTP Server (the two servers I use). I’d expect a little difference, but not that much.Īfter some forum discussions on Beta Archive regarding this (I looked into things after a user complained about slow speeds), a user told me that he uses IIS FTP Server with no such speed issues. This confused me, as there should be no reason why the speeds should differ so wildly. However over HTTP I could easily manage about 65.6Mbps (8.2MB/s) on a single thread. I recently found that despite having a 70Mbps (8.75MB/s) internet connection and a 1Gbps (125MB/s) dedicated server to download from, I could only seem to download from the FTP server at about 16.8Mbps (2.1MB/s) on a single thread.
