#2303: download breaks, traffic still flows somewhere...
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  alexnv         |        Type:  defect                   
   Status:  new            |    Priority:  critical                 
Milestone:                 |   Component:  Tor Client               
  Version:  Tor: 0.2.1.26  |    Keywords:  download, breaks, traffic
   Parent:                 |  
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
 When download (file 300 mb)actually stops (or better breaks, 65 mb on
 disk, status in browser: 0 bytes/sec, unknown time remaining), the Vidalia
 Bandwidth Usage graph shows that the traffic still goes on, with
 considerable pace (40 kb/sec).
 As counter shows, more than 100mb were downloaded after the browser showed
 that it stopped (no other pages were opened).
 All that data goes "somewhere", but is not attached to the file.

 So, it seems that the bug is not a minor one.

 -------
 Additional Info:
 When downloading without Tor (Tor not started),
 using Google chrome browser, all is ok.

 System parameters:
 1) OS Windows XP 5.1.2600
 2) Antivirus Avira (webGuard off, firewall off)
 3) Windows firewall is off
 4) Event ID 4226 Patcher applied
 5) Mozilla adjusted:
 network.http.keep-alive.timeout:600 (300ms default is OK usually, but 600
 is better.)
 network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy:16 (Default is 4)
 network.http.pipelining:true (Default- false. Some old HTTP/1.0 servers
 can't handle it.)
 network.http.pipelining.maxrequests:8 (No default)
 network.http.proxy.keep-alive:true (Default- true, but double check)
 network.http.proxy.pipelining:true (Default- false) -
