Cloudstack 4.3 - Template Upload/Download Speed Very Slow

Is Cloudstack 4.3 rate limiting uploading/downloading templates from GUI? On Local network, I can download same template with 50 MB/s to my machine and Cloudstack 4.3 downloads it with 2 MB/s, I have some large VM machine templates that I have to upload in order to create VM machines and 25GB template takes about 4 hours to complete (downloading from local webserver). I can download it from same local web server in 30 minutes to my machine on the same network. Is there any other way to upload VM templates to cloudstack? I seen 2 settings related to this issue but changing Network throttling settings (default 200 KiB/s) didntmake any difference,

Are you using the default secondary storage VM? By default, the SSVM is created with only 256MB in CCP 3.x /512MB in CCP 4.x. I currently have created a extra large System offering that has 2GB of RAM that speeds up volume snapshots and ISO/Template uploads. YMMV.

As a gotcha, make sure that you use the ID # from the 'disk_offering' table in MySQL section in step 2. If you use the ID from the offering in the UI, the console won't load after a cloudstack-management restart.
