On an unloaded 100TX network I did the following:

# time rcp -K hyacinth:/usr/x.tar .
0.2u 5.8s 0:15.84 37.9% 313+415k 5+886io 0pf+0w
# ls -la
total 55962
drwxr-xr-x   2 root  wheel       512 Sep 18 07:58 .
drwxr-xr-x  23 root  wheel       512 Sep 18 07:26 ..
-rw-rw-r--   1 root  wheel  57262080 Sep 18 07:58 x.tar
# 

This is about 3.8 MB/sec.

Given that the disk on hyacinth only does about 4.4 MB/sec. I think
this is pretty good.
