The logs provided suggest that the client is limiting download rather than nginx. Further, the client seems to do at least 17 various range requests to the file which is being downloaded, thus downloading many more than the file itself, but this is probably not the issue. Rather, the issue seems that the client does not proceed with the file download while doing these requests. Try disabling Firefox PDF Viewer to see if it helps (Preferences -> General -> Applications -> Portable Document Format (PDF), set to "Save File", see [1]). Alternatively, try using curl (or wget, or fetch, or whatever you prefer) to download the file instead of trying to view it in the browser.
