Orion only seems to display half of the actual download speed on the download manager, when compared to activity monitor speed on network activity. I tried downloading from multiple sites, and all of them displayed the same max speed both on Orion while activity monitor was displaying approximately double of the speed showed by Orion. I also tried downloading the same file from the same website with Safari, which was equal to in activity monitor. All this points towards a bug in the way Orion displays DL speeds.
To replicate the issue:
- Download any file with Orion, look at the download speed
- Compare the speed to data received/sec diplayed by activity monitor
Attached are screenshots of Orion's DL manager & activity monitor's data received/sec a few seconds apart.
The download speed should display the real download speed.
