WebClient download is very simple. It just doeas a stream read of the
complete file. It's probably the stream implementation that's slow.

i am using a webclient to download a list of wavs and mp3s from a web
site but it is very slow. From my browser i can download it in about
15-30secs.In the program it can take up to 3 or 4 minutes. Is there
more overhead with webclient is is there something else slowing down? I
tried to watch the transaction with a packet sniffer and it didnt show
anything at all. So i am confused about how webclient works
