I've conducted several tests at different times against this URL using both curl and IDM, though the speeds may vary each time, IDM always beats curl. > > Do the same symptoms reproduce even if you don't use a SOCKS proxy? It seems this URL is banned for my location. Without using the socks5 proxy, the connection won't be established. > What's the theoretical maximum speed for you against this URL? Maximum theoretical upper limit speed promised from my ISP is around 300 Mbps. But I really don't know the theoretical maximum speed for me against this URL considering that there are many factors which will affect the real speed up limit from my location to this URL. > From my dev machine in > Sweden, my curl reached 30MB/s from this URL.

All these techniques can also be done with libcurl-multi which is one of the goals of this project: https://github.com/pyIDM/PyIDM. Another wonderful downloading technique used by IDM is its dynamic file segmentation technology described here: http://www.internetdownloadmanager.com/support/segmentation.html. I've discussed this technique with the developer of PyIDM, and he has implemented the similar method for PyIDM, see here for more info: https://github.com/pyIDM/PyIDM/issues/97. But, even I and the developer of PyIDM do our bast for testing and boosting the speed performance of PyIDM, it still defeated by IDM. Considering that PyIDM is based on pycurl, hence libcurl, so I ask this question here. Another consideration is that PyIDM currently not use the libcurl-multi interface due that the author of PyIDM has some difficulties to figure out till now. See here for more info on this topic: https://github.com/pyIDM/PyIDM/issues/112. > Have you verified that your test case with that actually only uses a single > TCP stream? Interesting. IMO, the curl itself doesn't support multi threading technique, and for IDM, I set the max. conn. number = 1 for testings. But here, you told `a single TCP stream `. I still cannot figure out how to check or ensure I'm meeting this condition. Any more hints? > Just sothat we compare the same things.
