I know that some DC's use slow connections to restrict throughput, but I
do worry when I see 10Mbit these days. This could easily get flooded
with a sender using 1 or possibly 2 orders of magnitude faster
connections ( as an example, I migrated a website from my dev site in
chch to London, and I was transferring at sustained rate of 3.8MB/s -
nothing huge, but triple your server's bandwidth ).

Given that there's no flow control available with UDP ( U = unreliable
yeah??? ), I expect, as Jim says, that it's just plain congestion. 

Cheers,

Steve
