Slow ethernet in linux

[piahoo]

made me able to copy data over ssh from other Linux box (capable of easily doing 100MB/s), with about 22MB/s (tested using 1.2GB file using dd bs=64k from sshfs file)

So you did not test network speed but CPU encryption performance instead. Why exactly?

to test the actual speed, i would rather use speedtest_cli

Code:

sudo wget https://raw.github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/master/speedtest_cli.py
sudo chmod a+rx speedtest_cli.py
./speedtest-cli

where i have 2Mbit/s, which, for some reason is 2-4x more than any wget command (60-120kb/s)
on the other host, speedtest result is 120Mbit/s
