You should be able to get *at least* 1.2M(BYTE)/second between the two machines over ethernet, I would think.

1.2 MB/s is about the absolute theoretical max you can get over 10 Mbps ethernet and I seriously doubt you get this kind of transferspeeds on any classic Amiga. 250-350 KB/s is much more likely for normal transfers, transferspeeds higher than 0.5 MB/s are to be, dare I say, frowned upon in most cases. Even with large files.

250k/sec is too slow, imho - something ain't right.  I can go that fast (almost, anyway) with a null modem cable over serial -- with a high speed serial card installed in both machines, that is.   :)

I find that higly unlikely to say the least... Which high speed serial card are you talking about?  
Life sucks. Then you die. Then they throw mud in your face. Then you get eaten by worms. Be happy it happens in that order... My Amiga 1200
