Ok. well, I'm not sure what to tell you then. Can you explain the Web
Application's design a little better. This probably won't be the right
group, but maybe we can figure out where you should ask.

As far as networking, if you can sit at one server and simply copy a file
from one machine to the other at the expected speed (using Windows Explorer,
not using your web App) then there is nothing wrong with the network and the
problem is the design of the App.
