Public bug reported: Issue: Downloading files using FTP and sftp in Filezilla is limited to 800kb/s per thread. That means that downloading 10 threads at once (max # allowed in Filezilla) will allow 8 megabytes / second max speed. This limit can be fixed by changing sysctl.
Package: filezilla 3.15.0.2-1ubuntu1 How to reproduce: Download any file using Filezilla. This should be reproducible by anybody on all hardware and software configurations. Tested on (all 64bit): -Ubuntu 15.10 and 16.04 -Ubuntu Mate 15.10 and 16.04 -Xubuntu 16.04 -(it should be the same in all Ubuntu versions) Requested fix: Make the following settings default: sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_rmem=40960 873800 62914560 sysctl -w net.core.rmem_max=8000000 Source: https://forum.filezilla-project.org/viewtopic.php?t=40513 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2325481 ** Affects: filezilla (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: ftp -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1598392 Title: Filezilla speed throttled by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/filezilla/+bug/1598392/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
