Simply put:

Downloading a very large file causes the DM to lose stastics over the first two GBs.

Like,
filename.ext
Pause   -1912444 of 0 KB at -81.-4 KB/sec; ??? remain

And the -19.. keeps on counting to the positive side. It looks like the byte
integer here is too small for files over 2GB.

I'll try to attach a screenshot of this.

Reproducible: Didn't try
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to archive.org and look for the Moving pictures link
2. Select a movie of your choice
3. Download the MPEG2 version of your selected movie (over 2GB)
4. Wait for the download to exceed 2GB
Actual Results:  
The statistics go crazy.

Expected Results:  
Showed the correct statistics about the download.
