Re: File download from IIS is very slow



Your comparison only shows that the bandwidth issue is not due to any
restrictions by your ISP on your browser. Your comparison of downloading
from your IIS server and HP's website only proves that the network segments
between HP and your web browser's computer is fast -- it says NOTHING about
the network segments between your IIS server and your browser.

What is the actualy downstream speed of the network that IIS is on? Have you
ever measured it? Using terms like T1 and DSL really mean nothing -- what
is the actual bandwidth that the ISP hosting the IIS server gives you?

Are you running any custom server applications that install ISAPI Filters
that filter the output (and hence kill performance), or is any ISAPI/CGI
configured to handle the .ZIP download instead of the default IIS static
file handler.

I'm getting 300kb/sec downloading from my IIS on Windows 2000 Server for a
large ZIP file off my internal network (some Intranet network throttling is
going on). Obviously using the default IIS static file handler and no
filters in the way.

Hi,

I am running the microsoft IIS on Windows 2000 Server. The site is very
slow. I found out major slowness on IIS when I was trying to download some
zip files that I have on out web site. They were in size about 10mb or 15mb.
Connection to IIS site is by T1 and download side is connected with DSL . I
was only able to download about 20 to 25kb / sec. but when I try to download
a file form HP's web site I was downloading about 300mb / sec. There is a
huge differece. Please help me out.

Thanks,



.
