Hello,

I'm currently trying to send over a large file over "sockets_hz" module, but the functions used which creates the problem should be no different then the default "sockets" module

I currently have some kind of 'mini webserver' and it propperly creates headers error responses etc etc, it can send small files aswell. but whenever I want to send a large file over it to a client with a low download speed the client recieves the file corrupted(smaller in size as the original).

public sendfile(file[],socket) {
	new buffer[1024]
	server_print(file)
	
	new fp_read = fopen(file, "rb") 
	fseek(fp_read, 0, SEEK_END)
	new fsize = ftell(fp_read);
	fseek(fp_read, 0, SEEK_SET);
	
	** ALOT OF HTTP HEADER STUFF HERE(also uses buffer[1024] and fsize)**
	
	// File reading code by ot_207
	new readsize 
	
	for (new j = 0; (j*(1024)) < fsize; j++) { 
		readsize = fread_blocks(fp_read, buffer, 1024, BLOCK_CHAR); 
		socket_send2(httpsocket,buffer,readsize)
	} 
	
	fclose(fp_read) 
	socket_close(socket)
}

Right now i just spam the socket_send in parts of 1024bytes untill the end of the file is reached, This might be the problem because the client isnt ready for the next packet yet. but I cant seem to figure out how to do this in any other way apart from lowering the speed for ALL clients, which I am not gonna do.

Thanks,
-Ramon(o)

Updated!

Thanks, that works alot faster,

But because of that it makes the main problem even worse as it sends the data even faster now

Would it be possible to send larger packets, and pause it for some milliseconds each time? Like a "senseless" for (new x=0; x<=9999; x++) {} at the end of the for loop?

socket_send returns -1 on a failure
