I have been having this problem ever since the newest version of the browser. I wanted to give it some time before making a thread to try and make sure it wasn't because of my connection or something on my computer. I have been disabling my antivirus disabled to make sure it was not that.
Anyway, every so often, an incoming download will take about 10-15 seconds to start. This only seems to happen if I have not downloaded anything recently (e.g. no download started in the past hour). Normally I would suspect a cache speed issue, but last week I upgraded my system drive to a M.2 SSD, and that did not stop this from happening.
I do not think it is a connection issue either, because this will even happen on downloads started with extensions, such as tools that take screenshots of the web page you're looking at.
Strangely, if I start a second download on the same file while waiting for the first one, it will start instantly. The filename of the second download will have a (1) at the end. I think this means the first download is actually stalled in the background with the original filename reserved, but has yet to pop up.
