Timeout
If you want the expect script to pause / wait for a certain amount of time
then just add
sleep 1
at the appropriate position
This will cause the prg to wait for 1 second.
You could also force expect into conservative mode, read the man page
on your system for information on this.
This will make the prg wait 1/10 sec between each character being sent.

When I run the script, the script runs so fast. But when I do it manually, it takes about 10 minutes for the file to transfer.
