I could be wrong (it happens), but the best performance you are likely
to get from a 100 Mbit/s link would be right around 10 MByte/s.

I think the rest of the time would have to be attributed to memory and
file consumption fomr the way rsync works, as discussed previously on
this list.

Just my $0.02.
