Whats the single connection speedtest typically look like?

I have discovered most of the self hosted services i use like plex/jellyfin and file transferring services only utilize 1 tcp connection at a time which is severely limiting the amount of bandwidth out of network devices can receive through these services

My single connection upload speed is quite low compared to my multiconnection averaging 4-12mbps which is limiting how much bandwidth a single video stream or upload can utilize because none of my services are designed for multiple tcp connections

I got chatgpt to create a HTML site that splits my desired download file into chunks so it could use multiple tcp connections to download simultaneously and it averaged 20-40mbps over ipv6 to my phone much faster than 1 connection

Would anyone know of any file transferring apps or self hosted media services that can use more than 1 tcp connection per user so a single client can use the full upload speed?
