The switch from downloading the entire data with a single large packet to multiple smaller 256 byte packets, resulted in a considerable performance regression. In one particular case, the difference was a factor 6.7 slower! I performed a small tests (using an Icon HD Net Ready) with 256, 1024 and 4096 byte packets, and the total time was respectively 21.0, 11.3 and 6.5 seconds. For a single large packet, the total time is only 5.9 seconds. Thus the difference with a 4096 byte packet is negligible.
