Dear wget developers,

I use "GNU Wget 1.21.4" and I have problems to download big files with
wget. Unsure, what "big" exactly means.

For example I download firefox-source, noto-font, linux-firmware and
get checksum failures when using wget. These files are 340 MB to 1 GB.

size in bytes:
356057052  linux-firmware-20231111.tar.xz
524717896  firefox-119.0.1.source.tar.xz
1062488324 noto-20231031.tar.gz

Download is okay when using a web browser or curl.

So my weak guess is that wget can not handle big file downloads.
When I use wget several times to get the file, i always get another
checksum after download finished with wget.

No problems when downloading small files. Unsure, what "small" exactly
means.

Greetings
Graf Grimm
