Disclaimer: Not a network tech ;-(
Some where earlier on this list it was discussed that on 10baseT actual
transfer cannot exceed beyond 2.5~3Mbps on a single one to one pipe. Max
load on the NIC can be 10Mbps for three / four connection
simultaneously. This was in line with my observation.
I forget the explanation but you could dig in archives.

HTH and give direction for further detective work.
