I don't think Mac OS Forge is imposing any transfer limits, and MacPorts is

Interesting enough I have always got and still get about 30 kb/s from
macosforge, this is particularly evident for XQuartz. I workaround
proxying the file on a computer at uni, where it downloads at about
350 kb/s. I always wondered if it was a routing issue of my ISP or
what.
It may be a packet size problem on a router somewhere between you and
macosforge. Seems to slow things down a lot. The most extreme version
is the "black hole router" problem, where nothing gets through.
