Sounds rather too resource-intensive? I've just tried with current Chrome on Windows and a 32MB zip on my personal domain, Wireshark says the file has not been sent anywhere.
- kyrra 6y agoI believe there are limits on the virus checking size. You can see this when trying to download really large files from Google drive (> 100mb)
- lrem 6y agohttps://developers.virustotal.com/v3.0/reference#files-scan https://developers.virustotal.com/v3.0/reference#files-scan Seems I might have just hit the limit? ... Nope, 8.1MB zip file also wasn't sent anywhere.
- tapland 6y agoWouldnt it be more efficient to grab it in parallel to your download?
- lrem 6y agoThat only shifts the bandwidth cost between the original server and the user, Google's resources are unaffected. And it's not what GP claimed. I just checked the nginx access logs - both the 32MB and the 8MB zip files have been accessed only once (both were created only for this experiment).
