Here the situation & specs:
My PC is Win8.1 PC on a 10M/1M DSL line.
I am logged in on a dedicated server which runs Win2008 (i3, 8GB) which is on a 100MB connection, via RDP. (Speed test on the server confirms server speeds itself are ok, 96MB/s up, 96/MB/s down etc.).
The problem appears when I log into the server via Remote Desktop. My RDP is configured so that two of my *local* drives are available also on the server.
If I now want to copy a file, say a 300MB text file, via Copy/Paste from the server to my local PC it is extremely slow. ("Extremely" as in max. 60kb/s). For a 300MB file I would need 50mins, this is insane!
It should be WAY faster especially since my rather limited DSL speed should not matter, I mean the file is DOWNLOADED to my PC via RDP so it should come down a lot faster.
I also already "optimized" my RDP somewhat so it uses less overhead, but I still cannot get good speeds downloading.
Note: When I do it the awkward way, say, upload a file from dedicated server via FTP, I get good speeds and of course also then download the file using FTP to my local computer.
Mods: Copied to Networking as well, maybe I am getting more replies there.
