    Hi Militza , 

    Do you see in Packet captures >>> ( TCP Window Full & TCP zero window ) while downloading this file ? 

    >Btw , Try to remove the HTTP Profile and use ( Performance layer 4 ) and Test. 

    >Are there any firewalls between F5 Bigip and Servers or between F5 Bigip and Client ).

    > Maybe adjusting window scalling solve your issue , but first tell us if you see ( TCP Window Full & TCP zero window ) flags or not in your captures ?
