Richard,
This is because of the default behavior in
CE. Windows CE's Download Manager first
saves the file content onto KeySoft System
Disk, which in turn copies it to the desired
location. This is evident when downloading
or streaming large audio files. So this
behavior is normal.

Subject: [Braillenote] question about large
download files
I'm running KeySoft 7.2 build 47 on a
VoiceNote mPower.
I have noticed several times, when trying to
download large mp3 files, the
last one was around seventy megabytes, the
download process starts but
then things go strange. I understood that
the code was changed to allow
large files to be directly downloaded to
flash disk or a large memory card
to eliminate the size limitations of the
KeySoft system disk. When I try
to get one of these large files, I tell it to
go to my two Gig SD card,
which has plenty of free space. Then as I
check download process from
time to time, I see the file percentage climb
up to close to a hundred
percent but the next time I check, it reads
something like three percent,
as though it is starting all over again. If
I cancel the download process
at this point, I find my KeySoft system disk
totally used up and have to
do a 4, 5, 6, reset to get free space
restored on the system disk. What
is going on here? If I tell it to save to
the SD card, why isn't it going
there, even if some kind of temporary file
has to be used? What good is
it having large file downloads go to other
memory cards if the KeySoft
system disk size is still going to be the
limiting factor in download file
sizes? Am I simply doing something wrong
here or what?
Thank you
Richard Ehrler
