> Attached sample contains two HTTP downloads of the same URL from the same client, but there are no guarantees that the files is actually the same (no Etags etc - in this case it actually is the same, but lets pretend they were different...). However the file analysis framework seems to give the same file ID in file_name and file_chunk for both downloads.
> Think this is something to do with Range requests as doesn't happen if do "normal" HTTP requests.
