Ops, I've read this much too quickly. I read it as "40 Mb".
Please ignore my previous post, It is innacurate.

Maybe there is some packets drop somewhere ? However. I think TCP should
adjust itself ...

I have a similar problem with my brand new 100Mb switch : I get 10KB/s
with TCP (ftp, scp, ...) and 8MB/s with NFS (which uses UDP).
I get very good perfs with a 100Mb hub.
Now I need to find a serial console to look at the swicth's config ...
