I've gotten transfer rates higher than that with ftp and programs
like tcpspray before.
Are you using full or half duplex? Full duplex (If your hub/switch
can handle it)
I'm also using a dual p133, but that doesn't matter since the
program can't use more than 1 processor at a time (not threaded, sorry
folks. :-)

Note: I *WILL* not give out source or binaries of this program, because
it could be a *very* serious DoS attack if used on the real internet,
and I will not be involved in any such actions.
