Apologetically, we have discovered that in our alternate NT partition, we did not nail down the port to full duplex, 100 Mb. We have a known problem with some hubs in our network that do not support auto-negotiate, and the resulting huge performance discrepancy was really do to this. Thank you al

Sorry - I forgot to mention that our cache hit is 98.23 so that looks ok. And, agreed, the command line is slightly faster but not dramatically different. Where we see the big difference is when we boot the client from an alternate partition, simulating the destruction of that client. Our first
