I'm not so sure the original question can't be put in even more a
negative way, though... is it possible that some network driver is
causing one to get less than 10 megabits of throughput on some
particular chipset?

(I know that transfer speeds and bandwidth availability will vary with
transfer protocols, but what about handling of packets within the eth0
or similar device driver?)
