I get 8 - 9 MByte / second with FTP, using vsftpd, and 3-4 Mbyte / sec with SCP. Though this could also be current CPU issues, as the box is quite busy and the Via C3 isn't all that fast. I am running 6.2-PRERELEASE. Also, did you try device polling? Maybe that helps, although I currently don't have it in my kernel configuration. Here's an ifconfig output, let me know if you need anything else.
