Thanks for posting your concerns here. As network throughput diagnostics
can have many variables to measure, please provide as much of the following
information as possible:
- Where are these images hosted?
- Are they served by App Engine as a static resource
<https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstartedpython27/staticfiles>
?
- Are they served from Google Cloud Storage
<https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/getting-started-console#share_an_object_publicly>
?
- Time frame.
- When did you notice this slowness?
- Is it still going on?
- If not ongoing, when did this end?
- What is the scope of affected resources?
- Is it all images?
- Are other resources also transferred slowly?
- Is this slowness present for all users?
- How consistently are you getting this slowness? Every time the
resource is downloaded?
If served from a GCS bucket, you can use gsutil perfdiag
<https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/gsutil/commands/perfdiag> to run
some performance diagnostics. If served by App Engine as a static resource,
testing essentially requires consistent results. Resources on App Engine
may be served from different locations frequently depending on scalability.
Could you test a ~1 MB-sized resource multiple times and get the same
results? This may not be conclusive but might at least narrow down the
scope of investigation.
