Description

Hello. Using SFTP to download files from our SFTP server and are experiencing slow downloads on Android as if it is only downloading one chunk at a time. Our application is operating as expected in Windows and iOS. Are there any settings that we can tweak to help the download speed on Android?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the SFTP download on Android and compare its behavior with Windows and iOS, focusing on whether transfers process only one chunk at a time. The issue does not name a file, test, setting, or expected fix, so completion would require identifying the cause and demonstrating improved Android download performance.
