AVFS uses a temporary cache for the downloaded content, so when you
repeat your test, the first part is already available locally and
therefore the speed is much higher. But there is nothing actually
downloaded unless you reach data which hasn't been accessed yet. So when
you hit the boundary, the speed will drop to the speed of your actual
network connection.

Ralf
