Good point, David.

Germ, are you by chance going through a 10Mbps or other shared media 
somewhere in the path between your two machines?

Yesterday I transferred 4GB from one machine to another over WebDAV and 
it took a while - WAY too long at 11Mbps wireless, so I hooked into the 
100Mbps switch and enjoyed a hefty speed increase.
