#2222: Download process stops - only fraction of file is downloaded

Comment(by alexnv):
Dear Sir,
1) That file was only 300 mb (too huge for Tor?)
2) Please consider this:
When download actually stops (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.
All that data goes "somewhere", but is not attached to the file.
So, it seems that the bug is not a minor one.
Replying to [comment:1 arma]:
> I believe this is a polipo bug. Try taking polipo (the http proxy in
your bundle) out of the loop and see if things get better. You can do that
by going to Torbutton preferences and unclicking "use polipo". More
generally, though, Tor is not designed for downloading huge files. So it
is not entirely a bug that your huge downloads aren't working for you. :)
