This doesn't sound right to me.  The slowest hard drives, with the worst
settings, under the worst circumstances, will still beat 230KB/s by an
order of magnitude.  And good hard drives will beat it by two orders of
magnitude.

How about the switch as the weak link?  Have you tried a crossover cable
to directly connect two of the boxes?
