What I get is about 14MB/sec of data transfer. that's when I setup a apache server on 1 computer. and use a windows computer to connect to this server and download a 100mb using getright downloader. Apparently, I have a hub between these two. With a crosswire the speed improves to about 16MB/sec. that's it. :o(
