The download speeds are really slow. According to some of the URLs, it appears to be pointing to https://cdn.stardock.us/ but damn, whatever CDN you're using is not even remotely fast. And I'm on AT&T FTTH service with 1 Gbps downstream.

While this is somewhat subject and dependent on many factors, is it still the case? If so, what are you downloading......?

I was downloading an update to Start11. And as for the speeds, it took over three minutes to download the update file, that's dog slow.

For instance...

That's just 2 MB per second. In terms of modern Internet speeds, that's pretty slow. When I think of a CDN I usually think of something like Cloudflare or AWS which allows for you to contact the geographically closest server so that you can get the fastest downloads possible.

Apparently, you're not using Cloudflare for your CDN.
