- The program builds in and uses
aria2c 1.37.0by default. This version does not support setting "Max connections per server" to 64 (it will cause tasks to fail to download), so the app automatically compensates by limiting this value to 16 under this version, while maintainingsplit=64chunk concurrency. - If you need to run with "Max connections per server" at 64, you can quickly switch to
aria2c 1.36.0in the "Preferences → Advanced → Engine" card. After switching,max-connection-per-server=64will be allowed, while retainingsplit=64. - Tip: The real concurrency for HTTP/FTP single-source download is
min(split, max-connection-per-server); BT or multi-mirror downloads can stack concurrency, having less impact on overall speed.
