Weird upload speed in Debian

I have a SG VPS with roughly 1Gbps upload & download, and this is confirmed through speedtest-cli to multiple server, and my ISP's max download speed is 20Mbps

However me and other users facing a very slow download speed (when downloading a file from the server). After some investigation, I found a weird upload speed behavior on my server.

The scenario is:

  1. Start downloading one file, the speed is 2MBps+ (My ISP's max download speed)
  2. Cancelled the download, and redownload again, now the speed goes down to 500-700KBps
  3. Added one more download (now downloading 2 files at the same time), 2nd download speed is 500-700KBps too, and doesn't seem to affect the 1st download speed (now only around 1.5MBps in total)
  4. Added one more download (now downloading 3 files at the same time), the 3rd download speed is 1.5MBps and seems to affect the first and second download speed a bit (now 2MBps+ in total which is the expected max speed)

Take a look at the demonstration video here: https://youtu.be/PIX8JitRX98

Regarding the 1st and 2nd scenario, every time I started a new download from my server to my local address, I got small chance (about one in ten) to have a full speed (2MBps+) and it will never go down to 500-700KBps, but if I restart the download, the speed immediately goes down to 500-700KBps again. Take a look of the video I uploaded here: https://youtu.be/qsTaeLUIWWQ . Looks like the speed is changing every time I start a new download

What I have tried:

  • Using VPN (private internet access) with many different region
  • Tried 3 different ISP
  • Asked my other friends who lives in the same country as me with different ISP

and all of them are facing the same issue

MTR / Tracert from local PC to the server and vice versa shows good latency

This issue resolved by itself. Seems like a problem from the route between the ISPs and the server rather than the server it self.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
