Thank you, Sharl

I think the problem should be impossible, however it is exactly existed. I
test nginx for Windows on Windows Server 2008, and the client side is
Windows 7. In the same 100Mbps LAN network environment, the download rate
seems to have a little improvement, about 400KB/s. It is still very slow.

I tried to reinstall new Windows. There is no change on nginx for Windows.
