k so during the transmission ifstat reported:

    0.53  44266.87
    0.23  62788.56
    0.06  62774.17
    0.00  62774.26
    0.00  62774.95
    0.40  19482.25

And the rate output of netblast (using as suggested the parameters above):
119091

This is about 454mbps.  Still way slower than it ought to be.
