Description of the issue: When I download a file, even a small one, there seems be 5-10+ seconds when something is happening to the file before it “completes” and let me access it. The same process in Chrome is instantaneous.
Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary): 1. 2. 3. Just download a file… even after it’s fully gotten all the info, it just waits several seconds before the download looks complete.
Actual Result (gifs and screenshots are welcome!):
This file is not accessible yet.
Expected result: Should complete instantly after downloading all the info
Reproduces how often: Every time
Operating System and Brave Version(See the About Brave page in the main menu):
Version 1.10.95 Chromium: 83.0.4103.106 (Official Build) (64-bit)
OS X Mojave 10.14.6
The actual problem can be caused by hard drive issues or acessing policy.
The fact that it turns up when the actual filename is changing made me think so.
On the last downloading step the browser changes name of the file from %filename%.not.accepted.crdownload to %filename%.%extension%
Also it can be menu entry/file association events, have no Mac SAA experience to say clear
Hi @earlybird,
Can you go to https://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/tests/xhtml/testfiles/resources/pdf/dummy.pdf when you download this test PDF, does it also wait for 10-15 seconds?
@earlybird
Can you try creating a new test profile and seeing if the issue persists?
