TacoI just read up on Pixeldrain's network optimizations blog post and realized how much I don't like networking once again 
However @fornax did a great job of explaining what they did and how they did it in their blog post (shameless mention) and It spiked my interest on how these upload websites actually handle their infrastructure behind the scenes.
In the meantime, Thanks to Pixeldrain for providing a great user experience and amazing speeds even when you fill your daily quota due to your VPN use (at around 1mb/s which is wildly higher than what other websites that limit you to which is 120 seconds of mandatory wait, two captchas and finally a download at a mere 50kb at best!) you are amazing!

Fornax's Guide To Ridiculously Fast Ethernet
Introduction# If you are one of the lucky few who has a fast enough connection, you might have just downloaded a 5 GB file in 10 seconds and wondered how that is even possible. Well, it took a lot of effort to get there. When I first ordered a 100 GbE server I expected things to just work. Imagine my surprise when the server crashed when serving at just 20 Gigabit.
