This depends totally on the client and proxy and has nothing to do with the
protocol. Both are only a TCP connection. In fact HTTP features a much
better application level flow control with the HTTP/1.1 chunking.

Well, I just want to point out, that it is an old myth that FTP is better
for filetransfer. Most often this is because of the experience of ppl with
Browsers, which are of course no bulk down/uploaders.
