It kinda sounds to me like the improved speed you are getting is
from reduced latency rather then from higher available bandwidth.
You may be able to get the same result by increasing the TCP window
size on source and destination. The default is only 16K (on FreeBSD
boxes), 8K in Win95/98, and 16K on Win2K. If I remember right.
Also, if either if your ethernets are on HUBs changing those out for
switches should result in a major improvement in performance.
