Yup, I've got a full point to point T1 dedicated to this task.

What I found was that each time I started the process, it would jump right up and 
use everything it could. But after a while, it always slowed down. Cutting back 
on the (-N) number of processes helped this out also.

The DNS is on another server on the backbone which is local and so not remote or 
anything but also not on the same system either. I'm not sure what happened with 
the initial indexing, it just died and I didn't find any reason. Seems to be 
doing fine now, it's always got some 1.3 million URL's in queue. But, after a 
week or so, I'm just wondering now if this is going to take another week, a 
month, what?
