I'm using owncloud for the first time, I have two dedicated servers one with SSD drive which hosts the owncloud and a second server with a larger raid storage on SAS disks both servers have a dedicated 100Mbps line. I have mounted the disks from the storage server into my OwnCloud server and it indexes the few files I have without issues.
When I come to download those files to my home computer via the owncloud web interface (on a 150Mbps line) the max speed I can get is 160KB/s
When I get the same file directly from the storage server it downloads at around 7.8MB/s which is about what I would expect.
What is throttling the downloads via the OwnCloud web interface? From a Google search this seems to be a common issue with OwnCloud but doesn't have a solid answer. There seems to be no limiting built into OwnCloud according to the GitHub threads.
