I would verify the network throughput of your system to make sure the NIC/switch/etc are functioning normally, I use iperf to do this, really simple tool to use just need two systems.

On a good network you should be able to sustain roughly 900+Mbit/s with standard frame sizes and iperf on a single gigE link(hopefully with no tuning)

------------------------------------------------------------
Just for reference...
On a slightly less-then-optimal network i could get 900Mbps between an HP DL380 and an old IBM-T43, both with 1Gb nics and no tuning at all, through corporate network.

Between two DL380 with 10GB nics i got a performance boost (2500Mb -> 6500Mb) after i raised the MTU to 8K
