Where 10 KB matters

A 10,240-byte file that still arrives in the first round trip of a new connection. These are the default limits a file of this size is useful for testing:

SystemLimitNote
TCP initial congestion windowAbout 14.6 KB (10 segments)A 10 KB response fits in the first flight of packets; the 25 KB sample does not.
nginx and Apache request headers8 KB per header line by defaultData this large must go in the request body.
webpack asset modules8 KB by defaultAssets over the threshold are emitted as files instead of data URIs.

All 10 KB sample files

Use this file for

  • Checking thumbnail and icon handling
  • Verifying formula evaluation and cached results
  • Testing ZIP-based type detection

Testing notes for ODS

  • Dates are real dates in ODS and serial numbers in XLSX, so code written for one format mishandles the other.
  • Rows and cells can be run-length encoded with a "repeated" attribute. A sheet that looks empty may declare a million repeated rows, and a reader that expands them literally runs out of memory.
