I'm looking to push my download speeds as high as possible just for fun. I'm sitting on 10Gbps ISP with hardware that matches(Using NVME cache pool on Unraid, Unifi UDM SE router + Switch).

It seems that my biggest bottleneck(as of right now) seem to be too many connections used simultaneously. I don't know if this is because of limitations in Docker on Unraid or if my router struggles with too many connections. No matter what, I've noticed that if I enable above 200 connection in total, my download speed drops below optimal.

So right now I'm looking for the provider that can give me the best DL speed per connection, to see how high I can go for shits and giggles. ;)

My max DL has been a sustained ~330-350 MB/s using:

• Frugal EU server 100 connections (~2.5 MB/s per connection)

• Newshosting EU 100 connections (~1 MB/s per connection)

So, any tips on fast providers for EU? Ewekas speeds sucked last time I tried, so strike them.
