Download speed limit capped with PogoPlug?

[evhoria]

My PogoPlug seems to have a capped speed limit downloading files from the internet and even from local machines. I'm using deluge and ProFTP to test. Every time I download a file into PogoPlug, the max speed I get is 3 MB/s. When I upload a file from PogoPlug to another machine, I'm able to get 10 MB/s. I don't think this is a network issue. Is this an expected behavior with PogoPlug? If so, are there any work around to increase the download speed?

look at the CPU load when you download/upload. If it's at 100% then there is your cap.

Are you using SFTP/FTPS ?

I'm using SFTP. The CPU download performance is not exclusive to the FTP server. I also have deluge running and I am experiencing the same issue when I have torrents downloading.

So you are using ProFTPD to do SFTP ... instead of just sshd?

Does deluge do anything cryptographic ?

Deluge does crypto either way because many people on the other end require encryption. You may want to install openssl-cryptodev
