I am trying to download a 12M pdf file and it takes more than 4 minutes

I have asked detailed log here https://paste.debian.net/1206029/
I see timeouts but I am not able to interpret them correctly.
nginx is in lxd container in a nearly not used server (htop load
average 0.08 ...).
I use nearly defaut debian configuration of nginx.
The logs provided suggest that the client is limiting download
rather than nginx. Further, the client seems to do at least 17
various range requests to the file which is being downloaded, thus
downloading many more than the file itself, but this is probably
not the issue. Rather, the issue seems that the client does not
proceed with the file download while doing these requests.
Try disabling Firefox PDF Viewer to see if it helps (Preferences
-> General -> Applications -> Portable Document Format (PDF), set
to "Save File", see [1]). Alternatively, try using curl (or wget,
or fetch, or whatever you prefer) to download the file instead of
trying to view it in the browser.

Thank you very much, I had not the idea it could be a client such as
firefox, which I suppose bulletproof...
So I followed your idea and tried with wget : about 2 minutes 40s..
This is too much long too as with scp (in wifi at 2meters from the
server) it is only 3 seconds... ;)
Log is here (shorter ;) : https://paste.debian.net/1206278/
No additional range requests now, though still looks limited by
the client. Any antivirus/firewall on the client (or on the
server)?
No. I have not soon understood the interest of a firewall : either the
port is closed and I do not see the interest, either it is open and I
can only trust the application which manages it...
All my clients are debian and have no antivirus or firewall and tests
are done in the room where is the server.
nginx is in a lxd container with snap.
What happens if you download a random binary file of
similar size instead of a pdf file?
It does not change, after copying ggg.pdf to ggg using wget :

Time out seem to occur :
2021/08/02 14:39:10 [debug] 17204#17204: *22637 event timer add: 26:
60000:7599423246
2021/08/02 14:39:15 [debug] 17204#17204: *22637 http run request: "/ggg?"
I have tried too with another client computer with equivalent results...
Thanks again.
