We do have Riverbed Steelhead appliances at both end. According to calculation, maximum throughput can be attained is ~330KB/sec. With the Riverbed "cold" transfer, we should get ~600KB/sec. But I can only get ~250KB/sec with the Steelhead doing its stuff for 500M file so plenty of time for whatever to kick in. Iperf and netperf show great results though. I guess I will be sampling results hourly for comparison.
