That sound weird. Can you check by means of tcpdump, wireshark or similar wether packages are actually only hitting the air once?
another simple bandwidth check:
# host1: nc -l 8090 > /dev/zero
# host2: dd if=/dev/zero | nc host1 8090
bidirectional version:
# host1: nc -l 8090 > /dev/zero
# host2: nc -l 8090 | nc host1 8090
# host1: dd if=/dev/zero | nc host2 8090
kill the last after a while
with that I get very consistent 2.7 MB/s unidirectional, 1.4 MB/s bidirectional
