🚀 Fast File Downloads with aria2c

✅ Use this whenever you need to download large files quickly from a server that supports segmented downloads.

aria2c is a lightweight, multi-protocol, multi-source command-line download utility.
Unlike wget or curl (which typically use a single connection), aria2c can split a file into multiple segments and download them in parallel. This often results in much faster downloads if the server supports range requests.

NGINX Configuration for Redirecting WordPress Uploads to a Production CDN

This configuration is designed to redirect all requests to the WordPress uploads directory (/wp-content/uploads/) to a specified production Content Delivery Network (CDN). This setup helps offload static media assets to the CDN, reducing load on the main server and improving load times.

Configuration Details:

• The $production variable defines the CDN URL where the assets are located.
• Requests for resources within /wp-content/uploads/ are first checked locally.
