beside the URL you didnt give us any info what you do and how, this is
in any case insufficient if you expect any help.
You need to tell us:
- platform you use
- libcurl version you use
- program language / binding you use
- small code example which shows the problem
Also I recommend that you test / compare with a static resource rather
than a google frontpage which is dynamically created, and where its size
might change with every request.
