Actually the FTP server I was using was a little on the slow side. Also, there are 850+ people using the T3 simultaneously.. :)

It must be a pretty heavily loaded T3 -- it only takes me about that long
to send an ISO over 802.11b at 11mbps. A T3 can do a peak of around
5MB/sec, which can send a typical ISO in around 2 minutes...
I was mucking around with RAID-1 mirroring of a local disc to a remote disc
and was getting rates of up to 12MB/sec on the transfer... I don't think
I've ever seen anything else go that fast on a 100mbps ethernet... Makes
me wonder where the bottleneck is in FTP transfers...
