I've already established that the file downloads in seconds with
[something else], so I'd like to understand why python isn't doing the

A profile might help to understand what the time is used for.

As almost all operations are not done in Python itself ("httplib" is really
a very tiny wrapper above a socket), a C level profile may be necessary
to understand the behaviour.

Found and fixed :-)
