I have an intranet LAMP server and I use PHP to upload files. It is of course faster to download the same file than to upload it.
I understand ISPs throttle their network for download speed, than upload since most people download from the internet vs upload.
My question is if it's a local intranet with a couple of users, why is it faster to download the same exact file vs when I uploaded it a minute ago.
Does it have to do with HTTP upload process? Apache is faster? are PC network cards somehow configured faster for downloads vs uploads?
Enviroment:
Client: Typical HP desktop/WinXP/100Mbps
Sevrer: Redhat HP server/100Mbps.
I'm not sure where the slow upload speed is occurring so I can optimize. I'm not sure it's really related to networking.
Thanks,
Dan
