This is a result of timer precision. When downloading with the `--progess=dot` 
option on a very fast connection, one line of data (1Kb * 50 = 50Kb) is 
downloaded in under a millisecond. Which then causes abnormal speeds to be 
reported.
To fix this, please use the `--progress=dot:mega` or `--progress=dot:giga` 
options. They change the amount of data represented by a single dot and hence 
make the calculations better. Plus you'll have fewer lines on the screen.
