I download the same 20 meg file every day at 4am to check my line speed,
and it nearly always comes down in 16 or 17 seconds, which is about the
maximum true speed a 10 Mbit link will provide. This is a much more
reliable and realistic test than any of the so called 'speed checkers'
since I know the FTP server and link are not overloaded.
