-For small files (~14MB), the three have similar performance. For medium (~230MB) and large files (~3G and ~7G), FTP can perform better than Aspera and Globus (https), but the standard deviation is higher, which means that for some file downloads it performs poorly (Figure 2). Aspera, is the most stable protocol (the lowest standard deviation) for all file sizes; for example; on big files (~7G), the median transfer speed is similar to Aspera (~ 10MB/s), but it can perform for some files and locations under 5 MB/s. In Figure 3 we present the download speed for different file sizes, protocols and locations. Aspera and Globus (https) performs similar in all locations, but FTP show a higher variability across locations and file sizes. For example, in US and Hong Kong, the download speed is higher than in Europe and UK, but the standard deviation is higher (Figure 2-3).
