FlashFXP Forums - Poor transfer speed

Hi,

I've been using FlashFXP on & off for like ~18 years. When I'm not using FlashFXP, I'm running FileZilla. It does the job and all but I keep coming back to FlashFXP.

The issue that got me to switch to FileZilla last time was the poor transfer speed I'm getting in FlashFXP. I've searched this forum a bit and it looks like I'm not the only one BUT most support cases are closed... with a fix! So here I am, full of hope and all.

Issue: I get 10% of my download speed when using FlashFXP vs FileZilla for the same file on the same (dedicated) remote server.

Here's what the Help > About > Details tab says:
