I have several large files that I created in the IFS that I am nowdownloading to my PC using FTP. I files that I am downloading from theSystem i are clocking in a 38.5 Kbytes/sec, which seems pretty slow tome since the Ethernet line is configured at 100M and is set for fullduplex. I am on a 100 mb LAN and have been downloading files all morningfrom the Internet at between 500 and 750 KB/sec.

Why would I be able to download from the Internet faster than from theSystem i? Downloads should scream locally, don't you think?
