As you likely guessed, the problem's on my end:

apparently, my laptop's onboard ethernet adapter runs at 10base with
CCRMA's kernel, but at 100base with the FC4 kernel.  the adapter is a
Broadcom Corporation BCM4401; the laptop is a Dell Inspiron 1150.

a suitable workaround personally is to simply boot into the stock
kernel when i need sane transfer speeds, which is actually fairly
rare.

please let me know if i should send this info to anyone else, or if
anyone wants more info; otherwise, i'll just leave this here in the
archives. :)
