Ah-cha. I've had the same problem observed here transferring files from my 7500
(YellowDog CS 1.2.1) to my 7200 (MacOS 8.6), which started after I upgraded
netatalk lo those eons ago, and hasn't really gone away. At the same time, I've
been having the same good luck as everyone else at work, with the 1.5
prerelease on my RH 7.0 machine. I never did track down what was causing it,
but this was the only time that there was any speed issue with either machine.
I wound up ftping the files in question, if memory serves me correctly.
Anyhoo, just wanted to let the man know he wasn't the only one to have observed
this.
