It tries to match the popular download managers out there but there are. For moderate size downloads (something that doesn't complete near instantly), I'll prioritize chunks. Neat Download Manager is a handy download manager and accelerator with support for HTTP, HTTPS and FTP protocols. When you do have to decide how to prioritize chunks vs active downloads, if you are downloading many small files, then connections dedicated to parallel downloads will be more beneficial. I have mine set to 8 chunks x 8 downloads and I'll tweak if necessary and try again. Your connections to the server = parallel downloads x chunks per download. Also, you may experience issues if a server detects too many simultaneous connections from you. ![]() In practice I am not sure if chunks split file size perfectly evenly, and sometimes a particular chunk's connection can be slower than the others or even not connect. If a site you download from usually only gives you 2MB/s, a second chunk can potentially add another 2MB/s download connection to double your download speed, depending of course on your internet connection as well as the server you're downloading from. Set that to 2 chunks and you will have 2 active connections, each responsible for different 50MB portions of the file. ![]() ![]() If you download a 100MB file as 1 chunk, then you have 1 active connection downloading the entire 100MB (this is how downloading through a web browser works). From my understanding, think of a chunk as a connection dedicated to a portion of the file you're trying to download. ![]() JDownloader 2 is great, but the real magic from any download manager is setting the " chunks per download".
