i'm having problems with something that i just can't figure for the life
of
me... and i've noticed it time and again over the months.... ---> ftp
transfer speeds blow under fbsd

i've noticed this on more than one system, with different enet cards
etc.
i've tested using the default ftpd daemon, and also with wu-ftp server.
no matter what, xfer speeds to/from user ftp accounts are dog slow...
like 4-10KBps... basically, fast modem speed.
and... this is from a client box in my same room connected thru a
100mbps switch, or from my brother's 95 box 1500 miles away, who's on
cable modem
in short.. its NOT the client.. its fbsd... (or more likely... ME :)

the speed isn't eratic, in fact, its pretty stable... but stable at
SLOOOOOW speeds.

is there a "throttle" that limits how fast ftp can work???
if i xfer something thru samba... its much faster.....
the problem is limited to ftp (at least that i can tell)

any help/hints would be most appreciated!!
