This function is made to loop in order to drain incoming data faster. Completely removing the loop has a measerably negative impact on transfer speeds. Downsides with the looping include - it might call the progress callback much more seldom. Especially if the write callback is slow. - rate limiting becomes less exact - a single transfer might "starve out" other parallel transfers - QUIC timers for other connections can't be maintained correctly The long term fix should be to remove the loop and optimize coming back to avoid the transfer speed penalty. This fix lower the max loop count to reduce the starvation problem, and avoids the loop completely for when rate-limiting is in progress.
